IN KABALE—
The Prime Minister of Uganda, Dr.Ruhakana Rugunda has refuted claims
that President Yoweri Museveni has fronted a candidate to contest for Rukiiga District Woman Member of Parliament on ticket of National
Resistance Movement (NRM) party.
Rukiga District is set to start its operations on 1st July 2017 at the
start of financial year. It was curved out of Kabale district.
However, several candidates eyeing different political seats have
started campaigning to sway voters on their side.

NDUGU PM RUGUNDA WARNS OTAFIIRE TO GET OUT OF RUKIIGA UPCOMING PARLIAMENTARY ELECTIONS.

Rugunda’s statement comes after the Kabale District NRM party
Returning Officer, Maurice Mugenga Keitaba complained that Major
General Kahinda Otafiire, the Minister of Justice & Constitutional
Affairs has camped in Rukiga to convince voters to vote Caroline
Kamusiime Muhwezi as NRM candidate on District Woman Member of
Parliament seat.
According to Keitaba Otafiire has gone ahead to tell voters that
Kamusiime is being fronted by President Museveni. Two weeks ago,
Otafiire was seen traversing several sub counties in Rukiga convincing
voters that Kamusiime has been fronted by President Museveni to
represent them in parliament. Otafiire was also seen
donating bags posho to the voters in each house hold in Rwamucucu Sub
County so that they support Kamusiime.
Keitaba however says that, the decision for Otafiire to camp in Rukiga
has caused tension and insecurity among the voters. Keitaba
