In his petition, Tayebwa says Cowboy bribed voters during the 2016 parliamentary election arguing that the election was marred by bribery.

Tayebwa petitioned High court in Mbarara challenging Cowboy’s election but his case was dismissed with costs on ground that it lacked supporting evidence.

He further appealed in court of Appeal still challenging Cowboy’s election and today three judges including Bamugemereire and Richard Buteera agreed with the high court judgement and dismissed the petition on grounds that it still lacked the evidence.

When www.mknewslink.com managing editor contacted Cowboy shortly after the judgment, he said he is happy and what the court did was overdue.
