A brutal election loss turned tragic when the incumbent lawmaker died immediately after the count. Stella Apolot Isodo passed away while rushing toward Mulago National Referral Hospital for urgent care because of a sudden sickness. Speaker Annet Anita Among verified the heartbreaking update about the Ngora district representative on X. This outgoing Forum for Democratic Change member finished third behind two rivals before expiring.
The final tally shows Pedun Josephine Pedun from the National Resistance Movement snagging the win with 17,010 ballots. Abeja Christine Abeja of the Democratic Party followed up with 12,152 citizens backing her run. Isodo managed to pull 11,334 marks shortly before her untimely death. Amuge Rhoda, representing the National Unity Platform, barely scraped together 437 votes.
Online tributes are flooding in for this veteran organizer who pushed hard for women's rights. She earned major props across party lines for grinding on community development projects during her stint in parliament. Friends and local constituents feel gutted because she spent years mobilizing people at the grassroots level to boost social causes.
