Candidate Expresses Fear for Her Life After Finding Blood Sprinkled Around Home

Unknown person has sprinkled blood around the home of Evelyn Laker, the Alliance for National Transformation- ANT party candidate for Layibi Bardege South Woman councilor’s seat in Gulu City.

Laker woke up this morning only to find blood sprinkled around her house, kitchen, vehicle and compound in Aringorwot village Techo Parish Layibi-Bardege division. 

According to Laker, prior to this incident, unknown person was heard on Friday last week screaming her name in the compound.
