The founder of Youth Line Forum a non-profit organization in Uganda and former aide to former IGP Kale Kayihura Ronald Tugume has shown his interest to contest for Western Uganda MP post.

The former LDC President, under the mentorship of former IGP Kale Kayihura founded Progressive Lawyers Association whose aim was to tap into the knowledge of young lawyers to help in mentoring them, helping them get internship and job placements,

Tugume, is known to have been involved in university politics since his time at Uganda Christian University where he graduated with a Bachelor of Laws Degree.

He also served as the Coordinator for Crime preventers in western region and also a NRM youth leader in the Kabarole NRM structures.

Born to the late Johnson Musana who was a lawyer, Ronald Tugume hails from Kigwengwe, Rubingo Fort Portal Kabarole district.

The Youth Member of Parliament election is conducted through an electoral college vote and seems to be a laidback one of a kind because of the aggressiveness that many cultural institutions come with in the different youth structural positions across the country.

This race competition has always been a stiff one and this time’s race seems no different, as the NRM party flag is being sought after by Mark Ariho who hails from Rukungiri and son to Herbert Innocent Barigye, a city lawyer who occasionally does President Museveni’s private legal work, Edson Rugumayo who hails from Ntoroko district, Igumira John who comes from Kiruhura and among other candidates.
