Uganda boxing federation (UBF) president and city businessman Moses Muhangi has set sights on replacing Mohamed Nsereko as the next Kampala Central Member of Parliament seat.
The sports philanthropist has chosen to contest as an independent in order to bring on board all parties.
Muhangi has been in the music industry, supporting many current stars at their infant stage.
He has worked with among others National unity platform president Robert Kyagulanyi Sentamu aka Bobi Wine, under his gong records, Jose Chameleon, Bebe Cool, Spice Diana, Pallaso, Sylver Kyagulanyi, Nina Rose, Dax Vibes, Lydia Jazmine, Zex, Navio and almost all ghetto founded talents.
Away from offering them a recording platform, he has helped them financially in their music promotion and concerts.
Muhangi, who grew up from the Kamwokya ghettos before relocation to Kololo after life advancement, has been around with boxers, bouncers and the ghetto youths.
He has supported the boxers formally as the boxing federation president and informally as an individual.
This brings him closer to the youths, entertainment, boxing and NUP circles.
He has also worked with top city businessmen from his Kololo territories where he once represented as a KCCA councillor.
Muhangi, who mobilized all City village leaders to meet president Museveni sometime back as a KCCA councillor, has been in good terms with the First son and UPDF chief of defense forces Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba, Cpt Mike Mukula, prime minister Robinah Nabbanja among other government top brass.
With lots of international connection, most especially through sport, youthful Muhangi who has been hailed for resurrecting Ugandan boxing through advocacy and financial support, looks to attract masses of ghetto youths who seek just a leap to a new better life.
A professional lawyer, Muhangi is one of the top vocal and generous sports administrators in the country who has saved many in music, sport and political circles.
The two other close contestants look a distance from the ghetto and the youths, with masses looking at them as elites that are far from the ghetto reality.
