Political journey

Auma was the member of parliament in the ninth parliament of Uganda. [1] [2] [3] [4] She lost her seat to the parliament between (2011-2016) partly because she was reported to have used her first five years as a first term the member of parliament to chase for land deals instead of legislating for her electors.

[5] However, Auma disputed the results alleging vote-rigging and called for a recount. [5] She later filed an election petition which was dismissed by the Kotido Chief Magistrate Emmanuel Seiko with costs on grounds that Auma did not provide substantial evidence. [5] She was listed among the 34 member of parliament of Uganda who have spoken less than five times, and 29 of them belonged to the ruling NRM political party. [6]
