Among those who were vetted by the party electoral committee, include Kasanda North MP Patrick Nsamba and Flavia Nabagabe the woman MP aspirant for Kasanda district among others.

“There are many girls who are dropping out due to teenage pregnancies. This is because many people in Kasanda don’t value education,”she said.
