As the ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM) holds its internal primaries today to choose party flag bearers for the 2026 parliamentary elections, the internet has already found its winners — the memes.
This year’s voting style involves supporters literally lining up behind their preferred candidates. But some photos making rounds on social media have taken a humorous twist, showing candidates standing alone with not a single soul behind them.
While the elections are serious business, Ugandans online are turning the moment into comedy gold.
Whether your candidate wins or loses, one thing’s for sure — the memes from today’s NRM primaries will be shared long after the votes are counted.
