Betty Amongi’s Politics of Escape Has Failed in Lira City

Lira City is awake, Lango is awake, and when people wake up, everything changes. Betty Amongi did not lose touch overnight. She lost touch over time.

UPC by day, NRM by night, confusion, deception, and delay. Twenty-five years of it. That’s not leadership. That’s a cycle. And now, that cycle is ending.

Voters have learned.
They have observed.
They have compared

Leadership does not run from accountability. Leadership faces it. When Betty Amongi left Apac, it wasn’t a coincidence.
When she moved to Oyam, it wasn’t a strategy. It was avoidance. And now, when she appears in Lira City, we must ask the hard question.
Why now?
We were told she came “to cook for her husband.” A simple and convenient story.

But Lira City asks: Who was cooking before?
Why did politics suddenly follow the cooking pot? Where is the leadership accountability  for APAC and Oyam?

The pattern is clear. Run when the ground gets hot. Shift when voters begin to ask questions. Move where memory is short. But this time, the calculation failed. Because Lira City is awake.

The same old strategy—go where you are less known, rewrite your record, sell promises, and hope people don’t ask questions no longer works. Not here. Not now.

Apac remembers, Oyam remembers, and Lira City has learned.

The so-called prophecy has come full circle.
The husband is out of elective politics.
And, soon, the wife will follow not because of witchcraft, not because of enemies, but because of performance matters.
You can not abandon constituencies, neglect service, and then expect applause somewhere else.

You can not treat leadership like a travelling show.

And here is the difference — the real difference.

Dr. Jane Ruth Aceng did not run, She worked.
In just four years, Lira City and Lango saw real transformation
. Education strengthened
.Healthcare improved
. Tourism opened
. Infrastructure expanded
. Jobs created
. Agriculture modernized
Not noise.Not excuses. Results

That leadership woke Lira City.
It woke Lango.

And once people wake up, they do not go back to sleep.

The era of UPC by day, NRM by night, confusion is ending.

The era of deception is closing.
The era of borrowed popularity and political hiding is over.

This election is not personal.
It is judgment.

Leadership is not about where you run to.
It is about what you leave behind.
And this time—
Lira City chooses truth over tricks.
Performance over propaganda
And progress over politics.
