In a commendable initiative aimed at nurturing young talent, Mr. Okodo Peter, the aspirant for Kioga North Member of Parliament, has begun a program to support various clubs and football teams across the parishes in the Kioga North constituency.

This effort underscores his commitment to fostering growth and development within the community.

On Saturday, July 12, 2025, the Blue Rangers football team received a generous donation of uniforms and a football, a gesture facilitated by Mr. Apenyo Felix, who delivered the items on behalf of Mr. Okodo.

During the presentation, Apenyo emphasized that this support transcends mere political motivation.

He encouraged the team to embrace this opportunity as a stepping stone to enhancing their skills and passion for the game, reinforcing the importance of dedication and hard work in sports.

The impact of Mr. Okodo’s initiative was palpable as players gleamed with excitement upon receiving their new uniforms.

Team manager and captain took a moment to express their heartfelt gratitude to Mr. Okodo for his unwavering support. “We are truly thankful for this generous gesture,” he said. “It not only boosts our morale but also inspires us to work harder and strive for excellence on the pitch.

We pray that God blesses Mr. Okodo for his kindness and commitment to the development of our people in Kioga North.”

The Blue Rangers envision this support as not just an enhancement of their sporting endeavors but as a symbol of hope and encouragement from local leaders who believe in the power of youth engagement through sports.

With initiatives like these, Mr. Okodo Peter is not only investing in the future of these young athletes but also laying the groundwork for greater community cohesion and aspiration in Kioga North.
