OYAM, UGANDA – The Woman Member of Parliament for Oyam, Santa Alum Ogwang, has made a passionate appeal to the electorate to return her to Parliament, citing her proven track record and powerful voice as reasons she deserves another term.
Addressing a gathering at Yamiyon Cell in Oyam Town Council on [Date of Event], Alum positioned herself as the candidate who has brought pride and tangible development to the district.
Central to her campaign pitch was her performance in the legislative chamber. Alum declared that she has emerged as one of the best speakers from Northern Uganda, a feat that has saved the people of Oyam from shame.
"It is important to send me back to Parliament because I have made Oyam proud by emerging as the best speaker in Parliament in Northern Uganda," Alum stated. "I have not made the people of Oyam ashamed."
Beyond her oratory skills, the MP listed a series of development projects she has championed. She announced a significant achievement in the health sector, revealing that she successfully lobbied for the upgrade of Anyeke Health Centre IV to a district hospital.
"The government has approved Oyam and Kasese for this upgrade," she announced, a move that would significantly improve healthcare access for residents.
She also reminded the voters of her instrumental role in the long-awaited creation of the Aber district, which is to be carved out of the present Oyam district. Furthermore, Alum claimed to have personally invested in the community's infrastructure, stating that she had repaired many roads using her own money.
The MP's message was reinforced by her supporter, Isaac Ojok Orukubade, who spoke to the voters. He framed the election as a choice between a known entity and an uncertain alternative.
Ojok told the crowd, "It is only Alum Santa who knows the problem of Oyam well and not anybody who may even disappear after the election." This statement underscored the campaign's theme of trust and consistency versus the risk of electing an unproven candidate.
Concluding her address, Alum made a direct appeal for votes, asking for a renewed mandate to continue the work she has started.
"I appeal to the people of Oyam to give me their votes so that I can continue to work for them," she said, positioning the upcoming election as a referendum on her performance and a vote for continued development.
