Namisindwa, Uganda: Renowned journalist and youth leader Bwayo Emma has officially declared his candidacy for the Namisindwa District LCV Chairperson seat, pledging a leadership rooted in transparency, accountability, and people-centered service delivery.
Bwayo, who currently serves as Head of Marketing and Business Development at Elgon FM in Mbale and hosts a political talk show at the station, announced his intentions while rallying support from youth and community leaders.
“I am offering myself to reshape the image of Namisindwa,” Bwayo stated. “It’s time for a leadership that speaks the language of the people, delivers on government programs, and fights corruption with zero tolerance.”

With over a decade of experience in media and youth leadership, Bwayo, who also represents the district as Male Youth Councilor on the NRM ticket, says he is ready to offer transformational leadership. “I bring national and international exposure that will directly benefit the people of Namisindwa,” he said.
