Is Among’s Bukedea district Woman MP seat in the balance?

Otai, another blocked aspirant, said she still struggles to understand how her political ambitions collapsed despite fulfilling the required procedures. “Among is the one who blocked my nomination,” she alleged. “She used her power to stop us. We could not even access the Electoral Commission offices after making appointments,” Otai said.

But behind the image of political strength, three women who attempted to challenge Among now say they were silenced, frustrated and emotionally crushed by what they describe as a system designed to protect one powerful individual.
