"Our manifesto is the best, only the NRM guarantees you peace and stability, we have the surest plan for economic transformation and prosperity" Engeku said
He added that Uganda is on course to middle income status and that's why most Ugandans agree with NRM party.
With the coming of Parish Development Model, Engeku is optimistic that poverty stressed households are going to change economically.
He also asked NRM cadres to mobilize and convince opposition diehards to join NRM for the betterment of our country.
Engeku has expressed interest to contest as Kapir county Member of Parliament under NRM ticket due to the detorating state of the county with people attributing it poor representation of the leaders in power.
He vowed to transform the struggling Kapir county when he's given a mandate to legislate on behalf of the change hungry people of Kapir.
He said that Kapir county which was curbed from Ngora county has not benefited from national cake as the electorates expected.

We need to transform the people, bring services closer, improve on road network, education and health are part of my manifesto, he stated.
