Samuel Ediau is a Ugandan politician and Member of Parliament representing Amuria County in the 12th Parliament of Uganda. He was elected in the 2026 general election on the ticket of the National Resistance Movement (NRM).
Political career Ediau rose to national political prominence during the 2025 NRM party primaries when he contested the Amuria County parliamentary seat.
