The arrest, detention and torture of Ms. Atim Jamila Asha by operatives of the Internal Security Organisation [ISO] at a safe house in Kyengera; raised by Hon. Wadri Kassiano Ezati, MP Arua Municipality to be answered by Minister of Security, Elly Tumwine.

The poor road network in some parts of Agago District, particularly Kilak corner-Moroto via Abim; Lukee Bridge-Patongo-Kalongo-Bulugi section between Lukee to Kalongo]; and Adilang-Lirakato-Lapono-Paimol-Omiya-Pacwa to Namukora; raised by Hon. Akello Judith Franca, Agago District Woman Representative and was meant to be answered by Minister of Works and Transport, Monica Azuba.
