LGE 2026 | UDM holds national congress in KuGompo City

The United Democratic Movement (UDM) is holding its 6th National Congress at the Absa Stadium in East London, where around 2,500 delegates from across the country are expected to attend.

The congress will deal with organisational reports, policy direction, and preparations for the 2026 Local Government Elections, including the launch of the party's manifesto and key leadership elections.

Discussions will also focus on mobilisation, campaign readiness, and efforts to restore public confidence in municipalities amid ongoing concerns over service delivery and governance.
