She was followed by NRM’s Janet Rose Elau who got fourteen thousand and one (14001) votes.

Aguti, a social worker and a graduate of social works and social administration from Uganda Christian University Mukono, gave her first shot to the contest in 2016, but lost to her former invincible secretary general, Atim Ogwal Cecilia Barbara who had crossed to Forum for Democratic Change.

Six candidates were contesting for the seat which fell vacant following the death of former MP, Hon. Cecilia Atim Ogwal on January 18, 2024.
