Kampala Central parliamentary aspirant Moses Muhangi has confirmed that he will deploy Boxers to guard his vote for forthcoming elections due this Thursday, 15 January 2026.
Muhangi also warned against election malpractice citing places such as Kamwokya, Mengo and Kisenyi.
While addressing journalists at Ibamba Restaurant in Kamwokya, Muhangi asserted how he will protect his vote.
“We have spotted Kamwokya, Kisenyi and Mengo as the black spots where our competitors are planning to steal votes but we are ready to fight those elements.
The aspirant claimed to have received intelligence pointing to possible electoral malpractice in what he described as “black spots,” specifically naming Kamwokya, Mengo and Kisenyi.
Muhangi who is the Uganda Boxing Federation President plans to deploy more than 200 boxers to guard his votes.
“I am a boxer, I am the president of boxing, and we have a big number of boxers in Kampala Central.
“They are the people we are going to use to protect our votes at different polling stations. Of course, we’re going to be peaceful until we see elements of stealing our votes.”

Muhangi also narrated on why he opted for door-to-door campaign strategy
“The door-to-door campaign is very effective because you can interact with people face to face,” he said. “When we reached communities, a big number of people had lost hope in elections, but through engagement, they showed the love to vote again.”
Muhangi’s campaigns for the Kampala seat have majorly been on pushing for an improved national budget for all sports disciplines, working hand in hand with the people whom he aims to represent in Parliament.
He also wants to advocate for more funding and better sports infrastructure which he believes will empower talent and unite communities through sports.
Muhangi will battle with NUP Secretary General David Lewis Rubongoya, NRM’s Kampala Minister Minsa Kabanda, PFF’s Abdallah Walangalira, DF’s Nakuya Aidah, Abraham Luzzi, and independent Suzan Kushaba, all vying to unseat outgoing MP Muhammad Nsereko (EPU).
