NRM Shifts Focus to Economic Mobilisation After Elections, Says Treasurer Nekesa

The National Resistance Movement (NRM) party in Uganda is redirecting its efforts from electoral campaigns to economic mobilization, signaling a strategic shift in its operational focus. National Treasurer Barbara Nekesa Oundo has issued directives to party structures across the country, urging them to pivot towards supporting government development initiatives.

Party leaders are now tasked with actively engaging in and monitoring the implementation of key government programs, particularly the Parish Development Model (PDM). This initiative aims to boost household incomes and foster economic growth at the grassroots level. The NRM's emphasis on economic mobilization underscores its commitment to furthering the government's development agenda.

This strategic realignment indicates the NRM's intention to consolidate its support base by demonstrating tangible progress in economic development. By focusing on the PDM and other government programs, the party seeks to connect with constituents on issues of livelihood and economic well-being, moving beyond purely political campaigning.
