Arua District.

The Arua Magistrates Court has on this date 24-2-2023 jailed Arivu Sub-county LC3 Chairman Hon Edema Felix to 6 months in Prison for refusing to pay 700,000 Shs (approximately $200) to Mr Mawa a driver he hired to drive tipper Lorry belonging to his father.

The ruling arose from a case the complainant who is a resident of Arivu Sub-county, Mr Mawa filed after the LC3 Chairman began dodging him.

According to sources, the defiant LC III Chairman rejected rooms for dialogue on paying the money since 2020 until this day when he has been sentenced.

The money (700,000 Shs) has accumulated to over 2 million shs with the arrears and costs for recovery.
