National Resistance Movement (NRM) party has announced village-based campaigns as a new strategy to win the 2021 presidential elections amidst the corona pandemic.
The remarks were made by the Secretary-General, Rt, Hon. Justine Kasule Lumumba at the Party Headquarters in Kampala over the weekend.
Lumumba said that the party will this week start the distribution of campaign materials to NRM village leaders in a bid to extend their message from President Yoweri Museveni who is their presidential candidate to all members.
“NRM leaders shall hold village meetings not exceeding 200 people, move person to person and house to house with intentions to win at all levels,” Hon. Lumumba emphasized.
She encouraged all leaders from the chairperson and other mobilisation teams to focus and jointly work together if the party is to register success.
She added that if the strategy is well implemented, there is no doubt that president Museveni will win massively in the forthcoming elections.
She said most of the people who support their presidential candidate are found in the village, therefore the strategy should not be taken lightly.
