When a Leader Leads From Home: Minister Ogwang Launches a People-First Campaign

By Our Reporter I Ngariam Focus

OALE VILLAGE,ALIAKAMER PARISH,KATAKWI DISTRICT-The story of Ngariam County has always been written in the dust of its roads, the strength of its women, the dreams of its youth, and the steady footsteps of men who choose service over applause. And on Sunday, December 7, 2025, that story gathers itself again — rising like dawn over Aliakamer Parish — as Hon. Peter Ogwang returns to the very soil that shaped him. Not with pomp, not with spectacle, but with the quiet confidence of a leader whose work already speaks for him. It is a homecoming, a thanksgiving, and the beginning of yet another chapter in a journey forged hand-in-hand with his people.

A Campaign Born in the Heart of the Village

Rather than the loud rallies common in election seasons, Ogwang is deliberately choosing village meetings — intimate, respectful, face-to-face engagements where he can listen more and speak less.

His first stop is his birthplace, a symbolic return that underscores what many in Ngariam already know: Hon Ogwang never left the people; he works with them, among them, and for them.

Powering Olela Parish: A Promise Delivered

A major highlight of Sunday’s launch will be the commissioning of electricity in Olela Trading Centre and surrounding communities, made possible through Ogwang’s personal purchase of a transformer.

For residents who have waited years for grid power, this is more than infrastructure —

it is dignity, opportunity, and a spark for local economic growth.

A Track Record Written in Villages, Not Speeches

Under Ogwang’s stewardship, Ngariam County has seen a steady rise in community empowerment programmes:

* Seed capital for 293 villages

* Support for women groups with cash, goats and sheep

* Boosts for boda boda riders

* Supporting youth groups with cash and goats

* Borehole rehabilitation and clean water solutions

* Strengthening of health facilities

* Rehabilitation of community roads

* Building of Churches and Mosques

*Promotion of Sports especially football

His work speaks loudly — not from a podium, but through transformed households and grateful beneficiaries.

Campaign head Charles Ikabat emphasizes that Ogwang’s hallmark is impact.

“He does not campaign through noise; he campaigns through results,” Ikabat said.

A Celebration of Progress — NRM Leaders Weigh In

Katakwi District NRM Chairman John Robert Okiror describes the Sunday event not as a rally, but a thanksgiving moment:

“Ours is not just a campaign. It is a celebration and reflection on what we’ve achieved, and a roadmap to a brighter Ngariam County.”

The wider NRM team will accompany Ogwang as he embarks on village visits, a show of unity behind President Yoweri Museveni, Vice President Jessica Alupo, and Hon. Ogwang himself.

Sunday Awaits — And So Does Ngariam

With excitement building, the people of Ngariam are ready to welcome their son, their servant leader, and their champion of development.

Sunday’s launch is expected to draw massive crowds — not for spectacle, but for gratitude, connection, and hope.

Hon. Peter Ogwang steps into the 2026 journey not as a politician chasing votes, but as a leader returning home to reaffirm his covenant with the people.
