Kayunga, Uganda | THE INDEPENDENT & URN | The Uganda Electoral Commission has today declared NRM’s Muwonge winner of the Kayunga Local Council LC-5 by-election with 31,830 votes, beating early favourite Harriet Nakwedde who polled 31,308 votes.
Returning Officer Jenipher Kyobutungi made the announcement at about 9am, after a long delay of scrutinising all the results at the tally centre.
Majid Nyanzi an independent candidate got 1,287 votes, Jamir Kamoga another independent candidate got 279, Boniface Bandikubi 470, and Anthony Waddimba 158.
However, Nakwedde has protested the results and accused the Electoral Commission of inconsistencies. She says that the polls were marred by ballot stuffing, bribery and illegal arrest of her campaign agents, and alternation of results.
The seat fell vacant after the death of Muhammad Ffeffeka Sserubogo, who was found dead a month after occupying the office.
