Hajjat Uzeiye thanked Hon Obuo for his outstanding performance as the Government Chief Whip and for working closely with her office to see that work is done well.

At the same event, the soft-spoken ONC spokesperson, who is also the Lwengo District Chairperson Ibrahim Kitatta Almalik commended that ONC believes in collective responsibility and that’s how work should be done.

He added that the fruitful meeting between Ms Hadijah and Hon. Obua was meant to find solutions to existing problems [if any] and to strengthen the already existing relations to ensure swift implementation of the ruling NRM manifesto.

This wasn’t the first time Uzeiye and Obua meeting, last month, the two principals met in Gulu and discussed areas of strengthened cooperation.

The ONC recently flagged off a team of regional coordinators to monitor the implementation of government programs like the Parish Development Model and Emyooga.

Over 150 people were appointed as regional coordinators for the ONC and these shall be working alongside RDCs to monitor government performance and service delivery at the local government level.
