PAS Osiya Calls for Unity as Political Realignments Take Shape in Busia County
Busia County’s political landscape is shifting as Public Administration Secretary Arthur Amug Osiya issued a strong call for unity, urging leaders and residents to prioritize the common good over political rivalry. Speaking during a recent community engagement, Osiya emphasized that politics should be rooted in service, not hostility, declaring, Scatter none, gather all — politics is not about enmity; it is about championing the cause of the people. Busia belongs to all of us. Let unity, not division, lead our steps forward. The future is bright.
Osiya’s remarks come at a time of emerging political realignments ahead of the 2027 polls, with growing debate over leadership direction in the county. Some local leaders and supporters are expressing dissatisfaction with the current administration, arguing that Busia needs a new style of leadership focused on accelerated development and inclusivity. Within these political circles, there is rising speculation that former Governor Sospeter Ojaamong Sidai could join forces with Osiya, forming what supporters describe as a strong political coalition aimed at influencing the county’s future leadership trajectory.
The unfolding political wave has energized supporters who believe a major shift is underway, though allies of Governor Paul Otuoma dismiss it as premature political excitement. Analysts observe that Busia is entering a season of heightened political activity, with different camps positioning themselves early. As discussions intensify, residents are watching closely to see how alliances evolve and what they could mean for governance, development priorities, and service delivery across the county. What remains clear is that Busia is gearing up for a competitive political season, marked by calls for unity, accountability, and renewed direction.
