MP Godi vows to contest for seat
Arua Municipality MP Hussein Akbar Godi has vowed to stand against the recently-elected FDC flag-bearer, Amina Atako, as he fights to retain his seat. He announced the decision during a press conference in Arua town on Saturday. Godi, who earlier conceded defeat after the resounding win of Atako, a local journalist and FDC’s Arua district publicity secretary, said his nemesis was the choice of a compromised electoral college but not the voters who are the majority.
