Ronnie Mutabazi, the well-known manager of Ugandan musician Bebe Cool, has officially declared his intention to contest in the upcoming Nansana Municipality Mayoral election. The announcement marks a significant step in his political journey, as he moves from the entertainment industry into active political involvement.
Mutabazi, who has been a key figure in managing Bebe Cool’s career and navigating the entertainment industry, revealed his decision to run for mayor in a bid to serve his community. According to the statement shared by Mutabazi, this is the ideal time for him to give back to the people of Nansana through leadership. “I believe that now is the right time to step forward and serve my people. I am ready to lead Nansana Municipality towards greater development,” he said.
The decision to run for office comes as political aspirations rise within Uganda, with several other figures from the media and entertainment sectors also stepping forward to contest for different positions in the upcoming elections. Mutabazi intends to contest as an independent candidate, signaling his desire to approach politics with a focus on the needs of the community rather than aligning with any political party.
In preparation for his campaign, Mutabazi has already designed his campaign posters, which he plans to distribute to the people of Nansana. His entry into politics has generated considerable interest, with both his fans and residents of Nansana keen to see how his background in entertainment management translates to political leadership.
Mutabazi’s decision to enter the mayoral race reflects a growing trend of public figures from various industries making a direct impact on Uganda’s political landscape. His supporters are eager to see how he will bring his experience in leadership and communication to the role of mayor, as they believe he has the necessary skills to address the challenges facing Nansana.
