In a post made on October 3, Evelyn Anite, the Ugandan State Minister of Finance for Investment and Privatization, confirmed that she took back an ambulance she had donated to Koboko municipality in northern Uganda after losing an election in 2021.
She made the clarification in response to a post made by Isima Odeh’s Africa Facts Zone on Wednesday. Backing up her response with a Bible verse, Anite explained that the community reaped what it sowed by not voting for her.

“Thank you for bringing this up. First, it’s true I took back my ambulance & I have no apologies for that. Why did I do it? It’s because they didn’t vote for me. So did you expect me to walk away with nothing? Galatians 6:7 A man reaps what he sows,” Anite said in her tweet.
@AfricaFactsZone, Thank you for bringing this up. First, it’s true I took back my ambulance & I have no apologies for that. Why did I do it? It’s because they didn’t vote for me.

My action was for both of us to lose. Too bad I lost elections, you lost the ambulance. Let’s move on.— Hon Anite Evelyn (@HonAniteEvelyn) October 4, 2023
FIJ learned the minister had donated the ambulance to the West Nile town of Koboko in 2020. She made the donation to strengthen her position at the primaries of the National Resistance Movement (NRM).
Anite lost the election to Charles Ayume, who is the son of a late speaker of the parliament, Francis Ayume.
