On his first official programme outside the office in Kampala, the new Government Chief Whip, Hon Denis Hamson Obua journeyed to Kapchorwa district in Sebei region on Sunday, four days after assuming office on Tuesday this week.

In his speech, Obua asserted that he dedicated the first visit, in his new capacity, to Sebei because of the immeasurable contributions the region has made to the country’s sports, where he served as Minister of State.

“This is my first official programme, outside the office in Kampala, after my appointment and delightful promotion to Government Chief Whip of the Republic of Uganda. I chose to come to Sebei because of the outstanding achievements this region has made to Uganda sports, where I formerly served as Minister of State,” said Obua.

The Government Chief Whip deservedly noted that Sebei region that includes the districts of Bukwo, Kween and Kapchorwa, have immensely supported the National Resistance Movement Government hence worthy the first visit.

“With much appreciation, allow me state the fact that Sabei region has wholeheartedly supported the NRM Party and Government and therefore deserved this visit,” he noted.
