Samuel Okello Engola, the NRM flag bearer for the Oyam North County constituency by-election, has pledged to carry out the unfinished promises of the late Col. Charles Engola, their former representative.

During the Oyam North County constituency, the NRM flag bearer in his campaign for the by-election, Samuel Okello Engola has promised to carry out the remaining commitments made by the late Col. Charles Engola, their former area representative.

Okello began his campaigns Thursday 22nd June 2023, by addressing voters in the Aleka and Otwal sub counties.

“Your concerns have been brought to my attention like the promise the late minister made of extending power to a starch factory in Aliz parish in Aleka subcounty. I assure you that I will lobby the responsible agencies to ensure that power is extended to the plant to expand production and provide jobs for the young people here,” Okello said.

Additionally, he pledged to cooperate with the government to expand access to medical care by seeing to it that Health Center IIIs are built in each sub county of Oyam North.

He expressed satisfaction that locals are politically aware and willing to hold authorities accountable and promised to work closely with them to enhance their social wellbeing.

Okello declared that he was resolved to carry out the NRM manifesto and the former Member of Parliament’s, with the help of the electorate.

Hon. Rosemary Seninde, the director of Mobilization at the NRM Secretariat, who followed Okello on the campaign trail, expressed confidence in Okello’s ability to win the by-election.

“We are confident that we shall win this election by God’s grace because we are doing our best. We have done enough mobilization and we intend to intensify the efforts as we near the voting day.

Seninde stated that instead of using sloganeering to combat poverty, people should embrace empowerment initiatives like the Parish Development Model and Emyooga, as advised by President Museveni, who is also the National Chairman of the NRM.

“A leader has a role to play in providing solutions to the challenges affecting his people. We should not accept economic spectators. Everybody should actively take part in money making ventures,” Seninde told NRM supporters during campaigns.

On Thursday, July 6, 2023, is when voting for the Oyam North By-election is scheduled.
