"As I consider my options, I want to assure the people of Sebei that my primary focus remains on serving our region's best interests. Whether in politics or through my media platform, my commitment to amplifying the voices of our people and advocating for their needs remains unwavering.

As a media personality, I've utilized my platform to give voice to the voiceless and highlight issues affecting our community. This dedication will continue, and I'm open to exploring various avenues to serve Sebei effectively.

While I'm not ready to confirm or deny any plans to contest, I believe our people deserve effective representation. Let's stay vigilant and prioritize Sebei's needs as we navigate the upcoming NRM primaries. I'll communicate any decisions or updates in good time"

BREAKING NEWS: Kapchorwa Councilors Petition Ministry Over District Chairperson’s Interference in Recruitment Process

Kapchorwa, Uganda – June 10, 2025

A group of councilors from Kapchorwa District Local Government have today submitted a formal petition to the Ministry of Local Government, condemning what they describe as unlawful interference by District Chairperson Madam Evelyn Chemutai in the ongoing staff recruitment process.

The petition comes just a few days after Madam Chemutai allegedly summoned members of the District Service Commission and attempted to impose her own list of preferred candidates for recruitment. The commissioners, who resisted the pressure, were today reportedly met with further intimidation when the Chairperson appeared at a commission meeting accompanied by the District Police Commander (DPC) and Resident District Commissioner (RDC).

In their petition, the councilors accuse the Chairperson of undermining the independence of the District Service Commission and violating established procedures for fair and transparent recruitment.

“We cannot allow political interference to override merit-based recruitment. This petition is a stand for the rule of law,” one councilor told reporters.

The councilors are calling on the Ministry of Local Government to urgently investigate the matter and take appropriate action to safeguard the integrity of the recruitment process in Kapchorwa..

NGO Empowers Farmers in Mt. Elgon Region with Sustainable Farming Project

Kapchorwa, Uganda - In a bid to improve food security and nutrition, Aid Environment, a local non-governmental organization (NGO), has launched the Harvesting Health Project in the Mt. Elgon region. The project, implemented in partnership with Food for the Hungry Association and KACSOA, aims to integrate nutrition and sustainable farming practices among local farmers.

According to officials, the project is currently working with 2,555 farmers across the region, specifically in West and East Divisions in Kapchorwa and Kaptum, Moyok, and Kwanyiy Sub-counties in Kween District. The project provides farmers with training and support to adopt sustainable farming practices, enabling them to improve their crop yields and nutritional intake.

To enhance household nutrition, the project has provided farmers with various vegetable seeds, including Sukuma wiki, Dodo, Spinach, carrots, pumpkins, spider plant (Saga), black night shade (Sojet), and eggplants. These vegetables are rich in essential nutrients, and their adoption is expected to improve the health and well-being of local communities.

"We are committed to supporting local farmers and improving nutrition in the community," said a representative of Aid Environment. "This project is a step towards achieving that goal, and we are excited to see the positive impact it will have on the lives of our beneficiaries."

The Harvesting Health Project is a significant initiative that promotes sustainable farming practices, improves food security, and fosters healthy eating habits among local communities. With the support of its partners, Aid Environment is confident that the project will make a lasting impact in the Mt. Elgon region.

The project's success is expected to have far-reaching benefits, including improved nutrition, increased food security, and enhanced livelihoods for local farmers. As the project continues to grow and expand, it is likely to become a model for sustainable farming initiatives in other parts of the country.
