President Museveni starts his campaign in Bunyoro Sub-region, one of his strongholds since he came to power, but a few longstanding unresolved issues will confront him on the trail.
In the 2016 elections, Mr Museveni polled 81.4 per cent in Kibaale District, 74.47 per cent in Hoima, 69.62 per cent in Masindi and 68.74 per cent in Buliisa. Only two of the 23 MPs in Bunyoro are independents. The rest belong to NRM party. The NRM also dominates the local government seats in the area.
