Africa-Press<\/a> – Uganda<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>Ms Rebecca Kadaga, the Kamuli Woman MP and former Speaker of Parliament, conceded defeat in the Speaker race to Mr Jacob Oulanyah.The elections were held on Monday at Kololo Independence Grounds.<\/p>\n

The revelation was made yesterday to Daily Monitor by Ms Cecilia Ogwal, the woman representative for Dokolo District. \u201cAfter the final results were read, I escorted Kadaga to Mr Oulanyah and she congratulated him for going through as Speaker,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Ms Ogwal, who is regarded as a senior legislator at Parliament because of her long stint in the House (she joined in 1996), said she played a mediation role because she did not want to see other battles emerge after the speakership race ended. \u201cI did not want the results contested afterwards or other endless battles emerging among individuals and political parties, especially those who were involved in the speakership race,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Ms Ogwal added: \u201cThat is why I found it very important for Kadaga to concede the outcome of elections. By her coming out to congratulate Mr Oulanyah, it was a sign of peacefully accepting the results.\u201d Ms Kadaga was seeking re-election in the race as an Independent candidate after being dropped by the National Resistance Movement (NRM)\u2019s top organ, the Central Executive Committee (CEC), in favour of the Omoro County MP who was her former deputy.<\/p>\n

Ms Kadaga was not present when she was invited to make a statement after the speakership results were announced.\u201cKadaga did not have an opportunity to make the statement because she had already left the venue. She was tired and hungry after having not earlier had breakfast and lunch.<\/p>\n

Therefore, she did not find reason to remain sitting at the venue aimlessly even after the speakership results had been announced,\u201d Ms Ogwal said. Ms Kadaga polled 197 votes against Mr Oulanyah\u2019s 310. Mr Ibrahim Ssemujju Nganda, the Kira Municipality MP, got 15 votes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
