Angry losing MPs withdraw ambulances
February 24, 2021 Minister Evelyn Anite s ambulance
To strengthen her re-election bid last September ahead of the NRM parliamentary primaries, outspoken minister of state for Investment and Privatisation, Evelyn Anite donated an ambulance to her constituents in the West Nile town of Koboko Municipality–creating one of the most critical services in this sub-region where too few ambulances are normally available for millions of people.
The second act of the MP was to use the donation to whip up the colour-coded politics in the sub-region. The ambulance was painted yellow to emphasize Anite’s loyalty to the ruling NRM party and bore an imprint; “MP Nakonesi” (Kakwa, for an action-oriented MP).
