Of course we can’t forget the strong women leaders who didn’t make it in this election cycle. We challenge you not to lose the optimism you had because there a lot more awaiting your endeavors in various capacities.
When asked how she felt like after losing the presidential seat, Mrs. Betty Mamisango Kamya - the only female contestant for the presidential elections while addressing a press conference said that she didn’t feel bad, but rather felt stronger because the whole electoral process was a learning platform for her. She noted that the experience gave an insight for laying a stronger foundation for her future political career.
Sarah Kapule, who lost the seat for District Woman Councilor in Pallisa was not in a samba mood either when ACFODE interviewed her after the elections. She is very hopeful for the next election cycle where she is going re- contest because she believes she has the support. She also reckons learning more about having effective campaigns during the election cycle. She plans to use these skills in future for a successful political career.
ACFODE therefore encourages all of you to have the same attitude.
We wish all the women leaders - aspiring and acting the best of luck in all their endeavors.
