The National Resistance Movement (NRM) secretariat has launched the construction of over 20 permanent Party offices in various districts across the country.
This new development was announced by the NRM Secretary General, Hon Richard Todwong in a press conference held at the secretariat at Kyadondo road, Nakasero, where he was flanked by senior Party officials and said that building of offices will provide permanent homes for the members and enhance service delivery through manifesto implementation.
“We shall cover all districts but we began with 21 where some cadres donated land. This phase will cover some districts in the Central, Eastern, Northern and Western regions,” Hon Todwong said.
According to the Secretary General, the project will be financed by the money collected from the expression-of-interest by aspirants during the Party’s primary elections.
“This is one of the most important initiatives we are launching as a party today,” Todwong said, reaffirming the NRM’s commitment to ensuring every district has a functional operational base.
He revealed that so far, the Secretariat has acquired nine party offices fully built and donated to the party by some cadres in Ngora, Mayuge, Gulu, Kween, Buhweju, Bugiri, Bukedea, Sironko and Kakumiro districts.

While speaking at the same event, the Deputy Secretary General, Hon Rose Namayanja Nsereko, commended the Secretary General for the initiative and for providing exemplary leadership to ensure the party establishes homes everywhere and welcomed the choice of beginning with Luwero offices, noting the district is of great historic significance to the NRM family.
“The Secretariat procured an acre of land from the money donated by the National Chairman and President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni,” Namayanja said.
The NRM National Treasurer, Ambassador Barbara Nekesa Oundo, said regional project supervisors have been established to enforce accountability, quality control and adherence to procurement guidelines.
“Local contractors from respective districts will be prioritised, subject to rigorous due diligence including verification of registration, tax compliance, technical capacity and beneficial ownership to prevent conflicts of interest. The simultaneous construction of offices is projected to take about nine to ten months,” Nekesa said.
She added that all office designs are standard and generic and the parth shall have the same design everywhere, because there is no room for altering the design because they have been standardised and approved.
Other members of the top management who attended the event included the Deputy National Treasurer Hon Jacqueline Kyatuheire, Electoral Commission Commissioners Hon James Tweheyo, Hon Zaitun Dwiwaru and Hon. Auma Juliana Modesta and Director of External Affairs Maj Awich Pollar.
