Hon. Anite Evelyn speaks out on alleged procession rally video

Posting on her social media, Hon. Anite who also doubles as the State Minister of Finance for Investment and Privatization said the procession was not a campaign rally and that she didn’t organise it and was not even in attendance. Her team wasn’t even part of the event.

Below is her full statement on the matter;

“The procession that has been widely viewed on social media was not a campaign rally. I did not organize it and neither did my Team. I was not even there! The spontaneous  procession formed on the occasion of the delivery of the Ambulances for Koboko Municipality. The community is in great need of these ambulances as the nearest referral hospital is in Arua. We promised to deliver the ambulances before COVID19, but the pandemic has made them even more urgent to respond to emergencies during this period. As leaders in Koboko, we continue to raise awareness for our people to social distance, wear masks, wash hands and follow other guidelines provided by Ministry of Health. Health of our people is number one priority for me. I will do more to sensitize the people about this and warn them against such dangerous practices,” Hon. Evelyn Anite posted.
