Juliana Modesta Auma
Ugandan politician
Juliana Modesta Auma (born 14 October 1964) is a Ugandan politician. She was the member of parliament in the ninth Parliament of Uganda representing Abim District under the National Resistance Movement political party.
Political journey
Auma was the member of parliament in the ninth parliament of Uganda. 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 member of parliament to chase for land deals instead of legislating for her electors. During the 2021 general elections, she contested for the member of parliament as an independent candidate but lost to the NRM flag bearer and incumbent, Janet Akech Okorimoe who scored 7, 705 votes and Auma got 7, 608 votes. However, Auma disputed the results alleging vote-rigging and called for a recount. 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. 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.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Juliana Modesta Auma” as ugandan politician. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the people & ideas register because the source frames it as ugandan politician. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
The entry’s evidential value lies in the named roles, institutions and publications that can be tested against primary documentation. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 2, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q111444396. None of the 1 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1964, 2011, 2016 and 2021.
Later biographies can compress uncertainty and repeat inherited reputations, so apparently settled claims may still require comparison. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
