In outlining her vision, Nebokhe emphasized the urgent need to uplift the livelihoods of people in Namisindwa through active engagement with government development initiatives, particularly the Parish Development Model (PDM). She pledged to work closely with relevant ministries and stakeholders to ensure that the people of Namisindwa are not left behind in Uganda's broader development agenda.
"I want to be a bridge between government programs and the people. The Parish Development Model has the potential to change lives, and I will ensure that it is implemented effectively and inclusively," she noted.
Education and health services also feature prominently on Nebokhe’s development agenda. She stressed the importance of improving education infrastructure and access to quality healthcare by collaborating with the respective ministries to address service delivery gaps.
Nebokhe’s message resonated with inclusivity, unity, and empowerment. She urged the people of Namisindwa—especially the youth and women—to believe in their collective power to effect positive change through active civic participation.
"I am not standing for myself. I am standing for every child who dreams of going to school, for every mother who walks miles for medical care, and for every farmer who needs a market for their produce. Together, we can transform Namisindwa."
With the NRM party’s primary election process underway, Nebokhe’s entry into the race sets the stage for what promises to be a vibrant and competitive campaign. Her focus on grassroots mobilization and inclusive development may appeal to a broad spectrum of voters eager for proactive representation in Parliament.
