ADJUMANI. Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) presidential candidate Nathan Nandala Mafabi has emphasised the need to revive Uganda’s struggling economy by applying his extensive experience in finance and tax policy.
Addressing campaign rallies in Adjumani District, Mafabi said he is the most qualified candidate to rebuild the economy and restore accountability in government spending.
“I understand how this economy works, and I know where it went wrong,” Nandala said. “My government will fix the broken tax system, support local enterprises, and ensure that every shilling collected benefits ordinary citizens, not a few individuals in power.”
He pledged to allocate Shs 10 trillion towards revamping roads, providing free education, reviving cooperative banks, and offering interest-free loans to farmers as part of his broader economic recovery plan.
“We shall invest ten trillion shillings to rebuild our roads, give our children free education, revive cooperative banks, and provide interest-free loans to farmers. Uganda must work for its people again.” he added.
Nandala further assured citizens that his administration would enhance service delivery in the health and education sectors and tackle poverty through infrastructure development and fair taxation.
Accompanying him was Hassan Kaps Fungaroo, the FDC Deputy President for Northern Uganda, who praised Nandala’s message as one that resonates deeply with ordinary Ugandans.
“Nandala’s message is about hope and fairness,” Fungaroo said. “He speaks the language of the people — farmers, teachers, traders those who have been left behind. We need a leader who understands the economy and the pain of the common citizen.”
Fungaroo urged voters to rally behind the FDC candidate, describing him as a principled leader with a clear vision for national transformation.
