“Enough Of Their Naked Lies, Let’s Stand Together & Secure Our Future!”-Dr. Khanakwa Rallies Namisindwa Voters

By Frank Kamuntu

In a bold and refreshing move that has already ignited hope across Namisindwa District, Dr. Sarah Khanakwa, a respected health professional and community advocate, has officially declared her independent candidacy for the Namisindwa District Woman Member of Parliament seat ahead of the 2026 general elections.

Dr. Khanakwa, who has spent over two decades serving the people in both public health and community empowerment sectors, says her decision to stand as an independent is rooted in the urgent need to reclaim leadership that is people-driven, non-partisan, and honest.

“Namisindwa deserves leadership that listens, acts, and uplifts. I am not standing against anyone — I am standing for the people,” she said during her declaration rally at her home in Namabya Sub county.

Dr. Khanakwa is no stranger to the people of Namisindwa. Her grassroots engagements — from maternal health initiatives to youth empowerment and women’s economic inclusion — have earned her trust far beyond the ballot box. Her track record speaks volumes:

• Successfully led community health outreach programs in hard-to-reach areas of Bukokho, Bukhaweka, and Tsekululu.
• Advocated for improved road access to health facilities — a campaign that saw Namisindwa Health Centre III receive better ambulatory support.

Why Namisindwa Should Trust Dr. Khanakwa

1. Integrity First – Dr. Khanakwa has consistently shown that she values people over politics. She has no corruption scandals, no party fights, and no empty promises — just pure service.
2. Independent But Accountable – Running as an independent allows her to serve all voters without party pressure, while remaining accountable directly to the people who elect her.
3. Results-Oriented Leadership – Unlike career politicians, Dr. Khanakwa brings a solutions-based approach grounded in health, education, and economic resilience.
4. Champion for Women and Youth – Her work has empowered widows, young mothers, and jobless youth through livelihood projects and mentorship.
5. Grassroots Connection – From market vendors in Lwakhakha to farmers in Bubutu, Dr. Khanakwa is not a seasonal visitor—she is part of the community, living its realities every day.

Voters Speak Out

Many Namisindwa residents say her candidature is not just timely, but necessary.

“She’s the only one who comes without a convoy, without bodyguards, and yet she solves problems. That’s the leader we need,” said Sarah Nabwire, a trader in Namabya Market.

“Dr. Khanakwa is one of us. She knows our pain. She doesn’t speak English from Kampala, she speaks action from Namisindwa,” added Mzee Wanjala, a farmer from Buwatuwa.

Dr. Khanakwa has emphasized that her campaign is not about politics, but about people.

“My message is simple: we are not divided by parties, we are united by problems. And together, we can build a Namisindwa that works for all — not a few,” she said.

With a message of truth, trust, and transformation, Dr. Sarah Khanakwa is quickly emerging as the people’s candidate — not imposed by party lines, but chosen from the heart of the community.

As 2026 draws near, Namisindwa will have to choose between promises and proof, slogans and service. And many believe the choice is already clear.
