West Nile sub-region, previously known as West Nile Province and West Nile District, is a sub-region in north-western Uganda, in the Northern Region of Uganda.
Location
The sub-region is bordered by the Democratic Republic of the Congo to the south and west, by South Sudan to the north and by the Albert Nile to the east. The town of Arua, is the largest town in the sub-region. Arua lies approximately 475 kilometres (295 mi), by road, northwest of Kampala, the capital of Uganda, and the largest city in that country.
Overview
West Nile sub-region consists of the following districts, as of July 1, 2021:
Adjumani District
Arua City
Arua District
Koboko District
Maracha District
Terego District
Madi-Okollo District
Moyo District
Nebbi District
Yumbe District
Zombo District
Obongi District
The sub-region received its name from being located on the western side of the Albert Nile. Military leader and former president of Uganda, Idi Amin, first gained prominence in the West Nile region before staging a military coup and usurping Milton Obote in 1971.
Energy
As of May 2019, West Nile is supplied by the 3.5-megawatt Nyagak Hydroelectric Power Station, located at Nyapea, Zombo District. This is boosted by the newly installed 4.6-megawatt Yumbe Thermal Power Station, operated by Electromaxx. Another 8-megawatt thermal installation is expected in June 2019.
Meantime, construction of the 6.6-megawatt Nyagak III Hydroelectric Power Station is ongoing, with commissioning expected in 2022. With 16 megawatts to the sub-region now, the current power shortage can be mitigated until the national grid connections arrive in the next two to three years. Electromaxx has received authorization to transfer 12.6 megawatts of its installation at Tororo to West Nile, to alleviate the acute power shortage there.
