During the feast, Peter Sande Mutesasira, a resident of Masaka announced his defection from DP to Bwanika's party, saying he has the best manifesto. Mutesasira says he was convinced by Bwanika's strategy on unemployment, agriculture and climate change during the first presidential candidate's debate, which he followed on Television.
William Mwebe, a graduate of education says he has been hunting for employment for the last three years in vain. According to Mwebe, he supports Bwanika because he believes he can fix the unemployment crisis in the country.
Throughout his campaign in greater Masaka region, Bwanika has been promising to revamp agriculture, reform the education system and, improve tourism and fishing sectors. Speaking to URN after his final rally, Bwanika said he is sure of victory in the Thursday polls.
According to Bwanika, throughout his campaign many people expressed desire for a chance of leadership. He asked Ugandans cast and protect their votes. Bwanika is battling it out with seven other candidates.
They include the incumbent president, Yoweri Museveni, FDC's Dr. Kizza Besigye and General Benon Biraaro of the Farmer's Party of Uganda. The others are ex-prime minister, Amama Mbabazi, Elton Joseph Mabirizi, Professor Venansius Baryamureeba and Maureen Kyalya, all independents.
