The Independent Uganda: You get the Truth we Pay the Price
Kampala, Uganda | THE INDEPENDENT | The Alliance for National transformation – ANT party has finally found a candidate whom they believe can compete against other candidates in the race for Kampala Lord mayor.
The 21-year-old Yakubu Mayanja Musaazi was nominated at the electoral offices in Ntinda.
Musaazi said he chose ANT because of its willingness to embrace the potential provided by young people like him to occupy leadership positions like that of the Kampala lord mayorship.
He said he has been learning from the elders who have occupied the office for many years and he is ready to oust them so that he provides better solutions for the problems affecting the people of Kampala.
Meanwhile, another young man has joined the long list of independent candidates who have been nominated to contest for the position of Kampala lord mayor saying that having completed his senior six, he saw himself more than ready to lead the people of Kampala out of suffering due to bad leadership.
The 24-year-old Micheal Erons Mugabi, says he completed his senior six a few years ago at Old Kampala Secondary school and started laying strategies for taking over the lord mayor seat.
Judging by his interview with journalists after nominations, Mugabi seems to have been angered by the way the recent youth elections in which he participated were handled and he chose not to go for any position of councilor, but right to that of city mayor.

Well, young aspirants have this time come up with might though i am worried about the world we live in.
Those we consider mature tell us that we are the leaders of tomorrow and also that the future starts today but when it comes to action, they say we are still young for some seats, why? I have been inspired by the young brave and i’m sure it shall sound.
