A mammoth crowd from all the parishes of Oluffe Sub-county who gathered in Kamaka Parish on Tuesday, 11-March-2025 endorsed Mr. Uhuru Nelson as their Candidate for the 2026 - 2031 Maracha Constituency MP seat on the NRM Party ticket.

Oguzu Lee Denis (FDC) got 8,910 votes and won the election.
Aadroa Alex Onzima (Independent) got 8,213 votes.

Eng. Aguta Sam (NRM) polled 5,690 votes.
Hon. Aadroa Alex Onzima (Independent) polled 4,866 votes.
Mr. Leti Yophas (Independent) polled 336 votes.
Mr. Uhuru Nelson's endorsement by the residents of Oluffe Sub-county comes at a time when Maracha Constituency currently has 3 potential Candidates, namely; Uhuru Nelson aspiring on the NRM party ticket, Obeta Moses also aspiring on the NRM Party ticket and Aguta Sam aspiring as Independent candidate, are all tussling for the 3-February-2026 general election to unseat a staunch opposition MP Hon Oguzu Lee Denis who has so far served two terms on FDC party ticket as the MP for the area.
With only a few months remaining for the NRM party primary elections for Parliamentary positions to take place in Uganda around July, August, and September 2025, Mr. Uhuru Nelson is expected to compete in the primaries with Mr. Obeta Moses.
The Aspiring Maracha Constituency MP Candidate Mr Uhuru Nelson, who often speaks with a cunning voice, leaving the crowd with an appetite to listen for more of his speech, decried the high level of unemployment amongst the Youths, which has left many of them idle and staying by the roadside.

“If given the opportunity to become the MP for Maracha Constituency in 2026 to 2031, I will not give people hoes but I will give them the skills of making monies and buying their own hoes”, Mr. Uhuru affirmed amidst cheers and handicaps from the mammoth crowd who were attentively listening to his speech during the consultative meeting in Oluffe Sub-county.
Oluffe Sub-county NRM Party Vice Chairperson Alex Droti, while equating Mr Uhuru Nelson to a fresh, healthy, and delicious green vegetable, advised the people of Oluffe Sub-county to Vote for him as the only visionary leader for Maracha Constituency instead of going for candidates who are like vegetables whose leaves have been affected by Beetles🪲, Ladybugs🐞 and other insects.
With Kamaka Parish and several other parishes in Maracha Constituency having no access to electricity, Mr Alex asked the crowd to remain united and rally behind Mr Uhuru Nelson, a leader he described as resourceful.
During Tuesday's consultative meeting, Mr Kennedy Ezabo, who has been Hon Oguzu's staunch Coordinator in Kamaka Parish, defected and endorsed Mr Uhuru Nelson as the 2026 - 2031 Maracha Constituency MP.
“I have waited for the hoes Hon Oguzu Lee Denis promised in 2020 to be given to us immediately after he wins the 2021 general election but up to now, he has not fulfilled the promise and he is also not answering phone calls”, Mr Kennedy stated as some of Uhuru Nelson's supporters jumped to hug and welcome him into the new camp.
LC2 Chairperson for Kamaka Parish, Candia Jino while comparing Uhuru Nelson to the Biblical little David who was chosen by God to become a King, urged the crowd not to underrate him by size or age but they should vote for him to save Maracha Constituency from the bondage of insufficient service delivery and development.
