Patrick Amuriat Oboi, the Forum for Democratic Change-FDC
Presidential candidate has promised to offer 5 percent of the Oil revenue to
Bunyoro Kitara Kingdom if he is elected President of Uganda.
According to Oboi, Oil is a big resource and if well utilized will cause development
in the region which the government has neglected.
Oboi who was addressing the Kingdom officials at the Kingdom Chambers in Hoima
City on Thursday Morning says if elected, his government would offer special
consideration to the Bunyoro Kingdom by availing the institution 5% of the Oil
revenues.

The FDC Presidential candidate also vowed to avail the youths and
the entire people of Bunyoro jobs in the oil industry. He was concerned that
many people in Bunyoro have been denied petty jobs in the oil and gas sector.
