\u201cToday I stand before you to offer myself for service as Deputy Speaker. My focus is on a Parliament that listens, delivers, and works for every Ugandan,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
Obigah emphasized the importance of accountability, unity, and stronger representation of women in top parliamentary leadership positions.<\/p>\n
