President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni, accompanied by First Lady and Minister of Education and Sports, Maama Janet Museveni, on Monday December 1, 2025, was received by thousands of supporters at Booma Grounds in Mbarara City as he continued his campaign trail in Ankole Sub-region.

At the rally, the President addressed residents from both Mbarara district and city where he rallied them to vote for the National Resistance Movement (NRM) flagbearers in the 2026 general elections.

President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni has directed Parish Development Model (PDM) officials across the country to stop denying youth access to PDM funds over claims that they lack land, insisting that the viability of youth projects, not land ownership, should be the basis for approval.
