MBARARA

The National Resistance Movement (NRM) electoral process has seen a successful turnout, with 90% of villages completing their elections. However, 410 villages will repeat their elections today due to irregularities in the voter register and procedural concerns.

NRM Electoral Commission Chairperson Tanga Odoi emphasized the importance of voter registration during a press conference held at the party offices in Booma Mbarara city. He urged members to actively participate in updating their details to avoid future disruptions. He noted that apathy and lack of sincerity among some officials contributed to the challenges faced during the exercise.

Several high-ranking government officials, including President Yoweri Museveni, First Lady Janet Museveni and Vice President Jessica Alupo, participated in the elections in their respective villages and districts, setting an example for party members. The Speaker of Parliament and Prime Minister also mobilized their districts to ensure smooth voting.

Despite the overall success, some registrars were accused of altering results, leading to their removal from office. Odoi called upon district election officers to supervise their staff more effectively to prevent future discrepancies.
