President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni, also the party chairman, has initiated the process to update the NRM register in line with the ruling party’s electoral plans for the 2026 election.

After the launch, Museveni emphasized the importance of this exercise in determining the party’s supporter base.

“This is a good nucleus. Each book is sent back to the village and people check. People are free to go and check and if there is somebody missing, they can be added.” President Museveni Said

Museveni highlighted the responsibility of party leaders to mobilize Ugandans to support the NRM, stressing the need for them to understand the party’s principles thoroughly.

“To effectively mobilize, leaders must comprehend these principles, which diagnose Uganda’s problems and offer solutions. Leaders must delve deep into these principles, unlike followers who require only a summary. Mobilization efforts must resonate with the core principles of the NRM.”
