Controversial politician and former political assistant to Muhammad Ssegirinya, Alex Luswa Luwemba, has announced his intention to contest for the highest office in the country.
In an interview with a local YouTuber, Luswa explained that contesting for the biggest office is something he is seriously considering.
He, however, says he will not be contesting immediately in 2026 but in a few years, as he is giving NUP President, Robert Kyagulanyi, also known as Bobi Wine, another chance to take on President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni.
"I am planning to contest for the office of the President in the next few years. I am giving my brother Kyagulanyi his last chance at removing President Museveni; if he fails, I will do it myself," he explained.
Alex Luwemba Luswa served as a political assistant to the late Muhammad Ssegirinya for over four years. He spent most of his time in Kawempe North constituency doing various works when the late MP was battling for his life in the hospital.
Luwemba Luswa, however, lost overwhelmingly in the Kawempe North by-elections, which took place in March this year.
