The residents in Yumbe District have spoken in one voice, requesting for the comeback of Hon Taban Yassin as the LC V Chairman for Yumbe District.


Hon Taban Yassin in whose regime, the budget of Yumbe District rose from shs 21 billion in 2011 to Shs 110 billion in 2021, served as the LC V Chairman for the District for 10 years and lost to Hon Asiku Abdul Mutalib who defeated him in the NRM Party primary elections in 2020, and he decided not to run as an Independent candidate in the 2021 general elections.



A boda boda rider in Yumbe District, Mr Ciriga Ahkbar says the previous regime under the leadership of Hon Taban Yassin worked perfectly and even welcomed refugees well.

Mr Ciriga accused the current Yumbe District leadership of not working in the interests of the common people, which, he said, resulted into relocation of UNHCR Sub-office from Yumbe District to Arua City.



Hon Taban Yassin worked well as the LC5 Chairman for Yumbe District and if he contests, we are going to vote for him to lead us, says Candiru Rhema, a resident in Barakala Sub-county.



The chief of Ombaa-Romogi Chiefdom, Ajiga Godson stated that, several subjects in his Chiefdom had come to him expressing their discomfort over the incumbent Yumbe District LC5 leadership, which they said, needs to be changed. 



I have observed, there is a lot of disunity and misunderstanding which is affecting the peace and developments in the district, Haruna Asirafu a businessman in Yumbe District alluded as he agitates for change of leadership.
