The MP’s comprehensive development report reveals total investments of shs15.301 billion across all sectors, achieved through a combination of personal initiative, government lobbying, and program implementation.
Over 150 km of rural roads maintained and upgraded, amongst includes the following
300 culverts distributed and installed (shs60 million). Critical road links including Aboke Ginnery–Opeta, Ajokawelo–Adelogo, and Lwala–Abongjok (shs30 million)

Florence Apio of Adelogo Parish testified: “Women no longer have to undress to cross Omono Anyira Gedo stream. The bridge has restored our dignity and accessibility.”
Erick Otim from Apii Okuro added: “In less than five years, our MP has achieved the impossible. We fully support Dr. Samuel Opio Acuti for another term.”
The visible development surge has drawn comparisons with former Kole District Woman MP Judith Alyek, who served for over ten years but lost the NRM primary to Aceng Sandra. Residents question her decision to contest in Kole North after this defeat.
With documented achievements and growing constituent support, Dr. Opio Acuti enters the 2026 election cycle as a proven, development-focused leader committed to transforming Kole North.
