EALA: Why Zziwa failed as Speaker

On May 21, 2012, Margaret Nantongo Zziwa defeated more than 15 people to get a second term at the East African Legislative Assembly (Eala). She was not done though. She would go ahead to defeat Dora Byamukama who was widely believed to be the NRM party candidate to become the regional parliament’s first woman Speaker.
