Speaking during an exclusive interview, Tushabe reiterated her commitment to the constituency, affirming that her leadership would prioritize the needs of the people under the slogan, “Putting People First.”
“I am in this race because I want to give quality representation to my people. They deserve better leadership that truly listens and acts on their concerns,” Tushabe stated.
Tushabe outlined a robust legislative agenda centered on education, agriculture, health, youth empowerment, and community development. She promised to introduce educational scholarships to support students, agricultural interventions to boost productivity for farmers, and programs aimed at empowering women and youth to unlock their potential.
“We will prioritize sports initiatives, improve healthcare services, and support the aspirations of young people. Ruhaama County deserves leadership that drives radical change and fosters progress,” she emphasized.
Tushabe assured voters of her commitment to inclusivity and consultation. She pledged to hold quarterly meetings with constituents to document their concerns and ensure follow-up actions.
“Representation should be people-centered. I will consult our people before making critical decisions in Parliament,” she added.
According to Tushabe, effective representation has been lacking in Ruhaama County. She aims to address this gap by advocating for the constituency’s interests at the national level and ensuring that developmental projects reach the grassroots.
Commending President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni for his strides in security, infrastructure, and reconstruction, Tushabe promised to work closely with the government to sustain development in Ruhaama County.

“It’s time for Ntungamo residents to distinguish between leaders and rulers. Let’s vote for leaders who consult their people and prioritize development. Otherwise, our district’s potential will go to waste,” she urged.
Tushabe appealed to the electorate to entrust her with the mandate to serve.
“If I get the seat, we will achieve great things. Ruhaama County will see radical changes that improve everyone’s quality of life,” she assured.
