Congratulations, @Thomas_Tayebwa

Congratulations to the newly elected Speaker of the @Parliament_Ug, Rt. Hon. Jacob Marksons @ObothOboth and Deputy Speaker, Rt. Hon. @Thomas_Tayebwa. Go forth and serve the People.

I congratulate the Rt. Hon. Speaker Jacob Oboth Oboth and Deputy Speaker Thomas Tayebwa and thank the MPs for carrying out their mandate of voting, peacefully and transparently. The NRM candidates obtained more votes than the NRM members in the House, and I note the votes our ally Mao took away. We shall address this because we want a united Parliament that serves our people better.

Congratulations to Rt. Hon. Jacob Oboth-Oboth upon your election as Speaker of Parliament, and Rt. Hon. Thomas Tayebwa upon your election as Deputy Speaker of the 12th Parliament of Uganda. 🇺🇬 Wishing you a successful tenure filled with wisdom, patriotism, and impactful leadership.
