2010-2016 Manifesto

In this election manifesto, the National Resistance Movement (NRM) welcomes all Ugandans to the achievements so far registered since 2006 when Ugandans gave full mandate to NRM to lead the country. Sincere thanks go to all those who put trust in NRM as the best and most competent organization to govern the country. The trust Ugandans put in NRM was a result of its re-known track record of performance in the transformation of the country. NRM inherited, in 1986, a country in ruins. With a devastated economy, the country was collecting Shs. 5 billion only in revenue which has catapulted a thousand times to Shs. 5 trillion. With this increased revenue collection as a result of the growth and development of the economy, as well as peace and security, the country is now able to implement critical and desirable programmes.

Democracy and Good Governance

The NRM is fully committed to promoting and upholding democracy and good governance first as a core value, but also as a sine qua non for national transformation.

Since 2006 when Ugandans last went to the polls and overwhelmingly voted NRM under the multiparty dispensation with a clear mandate to lead the country, significant strides on political and socio-economic fronts have been made.

NRM has substantially delivered on pledges made in its 2006 Manifesto.

The Economy

The remarkable socio-economic progress registered has been the direct result of the economic policies pursued in the past. In the next five years NRM will maintain and consolidate implementation of the above policies by undertaking the following:

i) increase Economic Growth to more than 10% per annum through targeted measures to stimulate increased productivity and production in agriculture, industry and services sectors;

ii) maintain macroeconomic stability by keeping inflation at single digit and implementing a sound fiscal and monetary policy;

Human Resource Development

In the next five years, NRM’s policy will be to continue improving the quality of education and strengthening UPE, USE, Technical/Vocational and Tertiary Education through the following:

i) Universal Primary Education

Recruitment of more teachers to bring down the teacher: pupil ratio from the current 1:57 to 1:45. In this respect:

Information and Communication Technology (ICT)

The ICT sector under the guidance of NRM government has seen tremendous positive growth since the late nineties to date. The liberalization of the telecommunications sector and formation of the Ministry of ICT has greatly guided the sector into the leading contributor to the country’s GDP. The effective dual use of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) has become a very critical factor for rapid economic growth and wealth creation, and for improving the livelihoods of the world’s poor.

Regional Integration and International Relations

The NRM foreign policy seeks to promote and protect Uganda’s national interest abroad.
