For the by-election,four candidates were nominated for the vacant Namayumba LC III chairperson seat. They include Mustafa Ssekweyama, the National Unity Platform-NUP candidate, Matia Wamala Lwanga from the Forum For Democratic Change, Muzenze Joseph from the National Resistance Movement and Joseph Bwete, an independent candidate. 

Meanwhile opposition leaders have questioned EC’s competency and ability to carry out a free and fair election in the on-going by election in Kayunga district.

“More updates coming in from Kayunga- vehicles without number plates transporting pre-ticked ballot papers. Our people in Kayunga intercepted this car, but the occupants brandished a gun and sped off,” tweeted National Unity Platform President Robert Kyagulanyi
