THE woman Member of Parliament (MP) for Gulu district, Betty Ocan has vowed to mobilise funds to support sports in the district in order to reduce trauma among the youths.

She urged the youths in Gulu who have dropped out of school to emulate Dorcus Inzikuru by taking up sports seriously.

“I pledge to support the youths in any sporting activity. Who knew that Inzikuru would excel and become a world figure?” she reasoned.

The MP said this while handing over footballs to the district.
The district education officer, Rev. Vincent Oceng complained about the meagre budget by the district for sports.

He thanked the MP for the donation.
