Jane Frances Acilo's Empowerment Program: Aiming to Uplift Farmers in Oyam District

In a spirited effort to combat poverty in Oyam District, Jane Frances Acilo, the aspiring Woman Member of Parliament (WMP), has taken significant strides in empowering local farmers. On Friday 4th March 2025, she embarked on a mission to Iceme Sub County, where she distributed improved maize seeds to enthusiastic farmers eager to enhance their agricultural output.

Acilo's initiative is part of her broader strategy to eradicate poverty, which she claims has long hindered the prosperity of farmers in the region. "We must work together to lift ourselves out of poverty," she declared to a gathering of thousands who came to hear her manifesto as she vies for the National Resistance Movement (NRM) party flag.

During her address, Acilo emphasized the importance of improving the quality of farm products. "By elevating our agricultural standards, we can significantly reduce poverty levels in our communities," she asserted, rallying the crowd with her passionate vision for a prosperous future.

Farmers listened intently as Acilo outlined her plans to secure better market opportunities for their produce. "I promise to connect you with markets that will allow you to generate more income," she vowed, igniting hope among the audience. Many farmers expressed their gratitude, recognizing the potential impact of her initiatives on their livelihoods.

In a bold statement that resonated with the youth present, Acilo highlighted the importance of education. "When our children receive an education, they should not merely seek jobs; they should aspire to create them," she proclaimed. This vision for a future where young people become entrepreneurs rather than job seekers struck a chord, inspiring many to consider the possibilities that lay ahead.

As Acilo continues her campaign, her focus remains clear: to empower farmers, uplift communities, and foster a new generation of job creators. With her unwavering commitment and clear vision, she seeks to transform the agricultural landscape of Oyam District, paving the way for a brighter, more prosperous future.

As the sun set on Iceme Sub County, the atmosphere was charged with optimism. Farmers left the gathering with renewed hope, ready to embrace the changes that Acilo's empowerment program promises to bring. The journey towards poverty eradication is long, but with leaders like Jane Frances Acilo at the helm, the community feels more equipped than ever to tackle the challenges ahead.
