Tragic Incident: Col (Rtd) Engola’s Death

Col (Rtd) Engola was tragically killed by his bodyguard, who then turned the gun on himself, in an incident that occurred last month in Kyanja, Kampala.

Samuel Engola Emerges Victorious in Party Primaries

During the party primaries held on Saturday, Samuel Engola secured 532 votes, surpassing Queen Dorothy Amolo, who received 322 votes. Eight other aspirants withdrew from the race to support the son of the deceased minister.

Party Leaders Urge Support for Engola

Following the election overseen by Dr. Tanga Odoi, the ruling party’s electoral commission chairman, NRM Secretary General Richard Todwong called on all party members to rally behind Engola for the July 6 by-election.

Todwong emphasized that the elections were conducted fairly and urged unity among party members.
