Igara West: The ‘No age limit mover’ Minister of Local government Raphael Magyezi and member of parliament Igara West has chickened out of 2021 Member Of Parliament race.
After scrapping clauses that restricted the age of candidate for President at 75 years, Magyezi, was rewarded with a cabinet position, however, this left his critiques warming for 2021 parliamentary elections vowing to oust seat him alleging that he had lost love from his voters.
The current information on our desk is that Magyezi is no more in the Igara parliamentary race after pressure from 12 aspirants that both had started using Magyezi age limit case to decampaign him.
“Yes Magyezi has given up on the 12 men competitive parliamentary race, i suspect he was forced to give up due to pressure from his voters and the aspirants who had started decampaigning him for the age limit ordeal, an act that annoyed most of his voters” a source from Magyezi’s camp said.
However in response, Apollo Kakonge a close friend to Magyezi, noted that the Minister left the race because he wants to concentrate on the ministerial duties.
“Yes its true the Minister quit the race but the major reason is because he wants to concentrate and serve effectively his ministerial duties” Kakonge said.
Another source have since reported that Mr. Magyezi’s political assistant a one Deus confirmed to Magyezi voters that the Minister is coming to his constituency this weekend to explain on the way forward about his candidature.
