Singer Fik Gaza, known for his hit "Ndi Musanyu," has revealed his political ambitions, announcing his intention to contest for the Makindye West Member of Parliament (MP) seat in the 2026 elections. Despite halting his education at O Level, the singer plans to return to school to meet the qualifications needed to run for office.
During a recent interview on Sanyuka TV, Fik Gaza confidently shared his plans to represent Makindye West. He expressed belief in his capabilities, stating that "in the ghetto, everything can be got." His chosen campaign symbol—a shoe—reflects his background and personality.
Although he initially left school after O Level, Fik Gaza has since returned to complete his A Level studies, ensuring he meets the eligibility requirements to vie for the MP seat in 2026.
Fik Gaza's decision to enter politics follows a growing trend of Ugandan public figures transitioning from entertainment to politics, joining others like Tuff B, Catherine Kusasira, and Kapere, who have recently declared their own political ambitions.
With mixed reactions and skepticism about whether Fik Gaza is serious about his new path, the country awaits to see how his political journey unfolds.
