The 80-year-old leader is set to pick nomination papers this Saturday at the NRM Electoral Commission offices, aiming to retain his positions as NRM chairman and the party's presidential flag bearer.

NRM Electoral Commission Chairman Dr. Tanga Odoi confirmed during a press conference that Museveni will personally express interest and collect nomination forms for both the party chairperson role and the presidential candidacy.

'Like other candidates, the President and National Chairman of NRM will express interest and also pick nomination forms by himself,' Dr. Tanga told journalists.

The process for expressing interest and collecting nomination forms for all NRM Central Executive Committee (CEC) positions will run from June 26 to July 1, with candidate nominations scheduled for July 4.

Meanwhile, the NRM and other parties are actively vetting and clearing candidates, including those for parliamentary and district chairperson positions, a process that entered its second week on Monday.

The January 2026 elections will see Ugandans vote for both the president and lawmakers. Museveni has led Uganda since 1986.

Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni will seek reelection in the January 2026 polls, the ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM) announced on Monday.
