Frances Akello (born 1936) is a Ugandan farmer, educator and former politician. She served on the Uganda Legislative Council as a member of the Democratic Party from 1959 to 1961, one of the first African women to serve on the council.[1][2]
She was educated at Magoro Primary School, Toroma Primary School and Ngora convent school. She completed a teaching course in Namagunga in Mukono District in 1958 and received a diploma from Makerere University in 1966. With the help of a scholarship, she took a course at the University of Leeds on how to teach English.[1]
Akello was working as a tutor at St Mary's Teachers Training College when she was nominated and elected to the legislative council in 1958. She served as a member of the council's flag committee, charged with designing a flag for the country on its independence. She chose not to run for a seat in the country's first National Assembly because she would have to run against her mentor Cuthbert Joseph Obwangor.[1]
