Musician Ronald Mayinja has announced his intention to contest for the Makindye West MP seat.
The singer, who has long harbored political ambitions, will now put them to the test in the upcoming elections.
Mayinja will be running as an independent candidate.
He will be competing with the incumbent, Allan Sewanyana of the NUP, and other NUP-leaning politicians, including the Makindye Mayor, Ali Mulyanyama; the KCCA speaker, Zahara Luyirika; and the head of institutions in the National Unity Platform, Musiri Denis.
Mayinja was prominent in opposition politics, particularly with the NUP, before switching allegiance to the NRM, where he is currently aligned.
