2026 polls: DP bloc says considering Mpuuga as presidential front-runner

Members of the Democratic Party (DP) bloc have announced search for a frontrunner of the coalition in the 2026 presidential elections.

On Thursday, one of the DP bloc leaders, Micheal Mabikke, said the move follows disappointment after their alliance with the ‘People Power’ movement now associated with the Opposition National Unity Platform Party, led by Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine.

“You’re all aware that people power was a mass movement. All categories of people made a contribution, but that entire movement was hijacked by few individuals who have diverted from the original plan,” he said.

“We have now begun an effort to reconstitute all those forces,” he added.

Mabikke revealed that the coalition is considering the idea of fronting former Leader of Opposition in Parliament (LoP) Mathias Mpuuga.
