The Minister of State for Education and Sports and the area Member of Parliament for Ngariam County in Katakwi District, Hon. Peter Ogwang, has donated 20 million shillings for the construction of two churches in the county.
On Sunday, August 25th, the Minister delivered 10 million shillings to St. Pacaras Catholic Church in Angobo, Katakwi Sub-County. His mobilizers for Ngariam County, David Okiror-Opesa, Asha Akiteng, and Charles Ikabat, praised Ogwang for his commitment to addressing people’s needs through advocacy.
The team continued their outreach, delivering 170 maroon iron sheets worth 10 million shillings to Ounyai Church of Uganda in Palam Sub-County. They also provided assistance to 36 families in Odoot and Ounyai whose children were baptized.
Jorem Obukui, the Chairperson of LC3s in Katakwi District, urged voters to support hardworking leaders who deliver services and reject those who are lazy.
Hon. Irene Among, the Secretary for Education and Community-Based Programs, called on the public to embrace government programs and appreciate the work of their leaders. Among, who is also the District Councilor for Akoboi and Getom, said the opposition’s criticism of Ogwang is merely jealousy of his excellent work in the constituency.
William Aupal, the Chairman of the Building Committee at Ounyai Church of Uganda, acknowledged the receipt of the iron sheets and said people were already determined to vote for Ogwang and were eagerly awaiting the polling date.
Rev. Boniface Okiror, an overseer of Ngariam Parish Church of Uganda, said the Minister is remembered by the church for his heart and his commitment to empowering communities.
