Hon.Jimmy Akena accused the NRM of failing to deliver on its promises, specifically citing the poor state of road infrastructure in Apac District and the wider Lango sub-region.
“The roads you see here, in a state of disrepair, are a testament to the neglect we have faced for decades,” Akena told the crowd. “They talk about development, but what we see is rising poverty, poor service delivery in health centers, and a struggling agricultural sector. The ‘Fundamental Change’ they promised has been a fundamental disappointment.”
In his speeches, Akena sought to distinguish UPC from other parties by reaffirming its commitment to its core social democratic principles. He promised that a UPC-influenced government would prioritize free and quality education, accessible healthcare, and support for farmers through better agricultural financing and market access.
Akena said this while addressing crowds in Akokoro, Apac District over the weekend.
