Doreen Odongtho - Nebbi District

Doreen is one of the Change Agents who was elected for councillor in 2006. Doreen Odongtho was the Vice Chairperson LCV for Nebbi District and one of the executive members and Secretary for Gender, Labour and Eldery, Disability and Community Services.  

She gave her testimonies as follows:

“Immediately after the Change Agent Training course which I attended in 1996, I gained recognition in my sub county, Parombo which stimulated me to join politics in 1998 and contested for women Member of Nebbi District Local Government representing Parombo and Akuoro Sub counties which I won. In 2001, I again contested for the same post and I won with a big margin.

In 2006, I was re-elected un-opposed and then I became the Vice chairperson LCV for Nebbi District. Change Agent training has helped me to build my leadership carrier by equipping me with the skills and knowledge. I always feel proud to associate and identify myself with UCAA which has become part and partial of my life. Therefore, I am advising my fellow citizens of Uganda to join UCAA so as to realise tremendous transformation in their lives”.

Doreen concluded by saying long live UCAA.
