George Cosmas Adyebo

The Adyebo was a Member of Parliament for Kwania County upon his death on 19.11.2000. During his political career, Adyebo worked hard to bring change into Uganda's government system and foster economic reform. He left a very strong legacy for (Northern) Ugandans to aspire to. Having come from a very humble background, all his subsequent endeavors reveal a man of exceptional academic brilliance and discipline.
