Omoro District leaders have renewed their commitment to promoting holistic development, with District Chairperson Hon Okot Andrew Obibi convening all sub-county chairpersons to strengthen cooperation and accelerate service delivery.

The engagement also aimed to strengthen the National Resistance Movement’s (NRM) presence and performance in the district while accelerating service delivery to communities.

In his address, Obibi emphasised the importance of rising above political differences and working collectively to meet the needs of the people of Omoro. He urged leaders to embrace teamwork and prioritise the implementation of development programmes that directly benefit communities.

Omoro District NRM Chairperson Okot Morish Odong, who also serves as LCIII Chairperson of Lakwana Sub-county, commended the District LC5 Chairperson for convening the meeting. He stressed that teamwork is essential to implementing the NRM manifesto and called on party members and elected leaders to take a firm stand against corruption.

Odong appealed to the government to integrate NRM leaders at all levels into government programmes to strengthen accountability and ensure effective service delivery at grassroots level. He further urged the government to conduct orientation and capacity-building sessions for party leaders to equip them with the skills needed for effective leadership.

In response, NRM chairpersons from across the district pledged to work closely with the District Chairperson and other elected leaders to achieve “the Omoro we want”. Their commitment underscored a collective resolve to promote integrity, discipline and unity in pursuit of development.

The meeting followed a similar engagement held on Wednesday with all 15 LCIII chairpersons from sub-counties and town councils in Omoro, signalling district-wide momentum towards coordinated leadership and holistic development.
