At this critical juncture in geopolitics, Uganda has made great strides to fulfill both its domestic and regional commitments. The Museveni administration continues to use the resources at its disposal to make the best of what is a rather debilitating situation in rural Uganda; the government maintains pressure on the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA) to secure a ceasefire while combating lawlessness and extremism in Somalia. As Uganda assumes the rotating Presidency of the United Nations Security Council, the world looks to Kampala as a friend in fighting disease, poverty and extremism and meeting the goals it has promised to meet.
For many years I have taken the lead and have been an integral part of efforts to combat said extremism and restore peace to northern Uganda after over 20 years of LRA war. During my time as Minister of State for Pacification of North Uganda, I advocated a peaceful resolution to the conflict. I have continued to do so in all subsequent local and indeed international positions. With a relative easing of hostilities in the northern region, I aspire to continue my efforts to create an increasingly developed and sustainable society in the Acholi sub region, focusing closely specifically on the Amuru district. I believe I possess a strong desire to serve my people and facilitate the transition to a better future; one of complete economic, social and political stability that sets an example.
