NGAI SUB-COUNTY, OYAM – The atmosphere in Okomo and Aramita parishes was electric today as the area’s Member of Parliament, Hon. Santa Alum Ogwang, was met with a rapturous welcome from hundreds of supporters, signaling strong momentum for her impending re-election bid.
Chants, cheers, and jubilant songs filled the air as constituents lined the roads to receive their legislator. The enthusiastic crowds, comprising many of the voters who propelled her to Parliament, passionately assured her of their steadfast support in the upcoming elections.
Addressing the vibrant gathering, Hon. Alum framed the election as a critical juncture for the people of Oyam. She reflected on the challenges faced during her term, specifically pointing to attempts to derail her leadership through the courts.
“It is high time for the people of Oyam to vote me back because some people who want leadership tried to bully me by taking me to court,” Alum stated, drawing supportive roars from the crowd. She positioned the legal battles not as a personal setback, but as an attack on the democratic will of her constituents.
Her message escalated into a defiant pledge to protect the electorate's sovereign right to choose. “I will never allow anybody to mess around with the people of Oyam by denying them their rights to vote for the leader of their choice,” she declared, a statement met with resounding approval.
Transitioning from defense to service, the MP reminded the community of her developmental record and promised continuity. “I am going to continue helping the people of Oyam as I have been doing,” Alum affirmed, linking her past performance to a future mandate.
The overwhelming reception in Ngai Sub-county is seen as a significant indicator of her grassroots strength. Political analysts suggest the event underscores a campaign narrative that pits a court-tested, people-centric incumbent against what she describes as external “bullying” forces attempting to influence the district's leadership.
As the campaign season intensifies, the scenes of jubilation in Okomo and Aramita parishes send a clear message: Santa Alum Ogwang is returning to the political battlefield with a powerful base of support, ready to frame the election as a referendum on both her service and the people’s right to choose freely.
