How Muhamood Masaba Rose From Nabumali Hills to a Force in Bungokho Central Politics
In the heart of Bugisu, where the rolling hills of Nabumali kiss the skies, a young boy once walked unaware that his humble beginnings would one day script one of the most talked-about political journeys in Mbale’s recent history.
Muhamood Masaba, a son of the soil molded by modesty and resilience, began his leadership path in the buzzing streets of Mbale Town—now Mbale City. Those who watched him grow describe him as a soft-spoken but fiercely determined young man, a “go-getter” whose ambition was never dulled by circumstance.
Masaba’s political star first flickered during his days as a youth leader, where he quickly gained admiration for his clarity of thought and organizational skill. His steady rise saw him take on the mantle of District NRM Chairperson, a position that amplified his voice and influence within the ruling party. Still burning with ambition, he climbed yet another rung—becoming the Mayor of Industrial City Division, where his leadership approach earned him both supporters and skeptics.
His boldest move, however, came when he declared his intention to join the race for Member of Parliament, Bungokho Central. At first, many dismissed him—seeing only the young, humble boy they once knew. But that perception would not last long. Masaba embarked on a spirited, strategic campaign that flipped the political script. By the time the NRM primaries ended, he had stunned his critics, emerging victorious with the party flag in hand.
Today, Muhamood Masaba stands not just as a contender, but as one of the formidable hopefuls eyeing a seat in the Parliament of Uganda come 2026. His journey—from the quiet hills of Nabumali to the forefront of Bungokho Central’s political landscape—is a testament to resilience, grit, and the power of humble beginnings.
Whether destiny will carry him to the steps of Parliament remains to be seen, but one thing is clear: Muhamood Masaba is no longer the underdog. He is a rising force—one whose story continues to inspire many across Mbale and beyond.
