Musician Ibrahim Mayanja aka Big Eye is aspiring for the parliamentary position of Nansana Municipality in the coming 2026 general elections.
The struggling musician will however first contest for the NUP party ticket, where he will have to face off with incumbent Wakayima Musoke, media personality Zambali Bulasio Mukasa, and foot soldier Serukuma John Bosco.
The singer now says losing the party ticket will hinder his mission and will do anything possible to win the hearts of the NUP's elections management committee.
"If the NUP flag is assigned to another member, that’s fine, but it will hinder my mission. But I hope to come out on top," he explained in an interview with a local television station.
Big Eye asserts that he is the most loved among the candidates who have expressed interest in the position.
"Of all the people who have contested under the NUP party, I’m the one who has been well received," he added.
