The Electoral Commission has successfully nominated four
candidates for the vacant Namayumba LC III chairperson seat in Wakiso district.
They are 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.
Tolbert Musinguzi, the Wakiso District Returning
Officer, says the two-day’s was peaceful and asked the candidates to follow the
guidelines issued by the Electoral Commission and Health Ministry.
//Cue in: "Ngenda kusaba abo bonna
abayiseemu...
Cue out: … tetwagala kukozesa lurimi,"//
Musinguzi explains that the by-election follows
the misrepresentation of the names of the NRM candidate in the last polls. He says
that even the NUP candidate, Nsubuga Deogracious got an accident a day after
the previous elections.
//Cue in “Mujukira bulungi…
Cue out…kwegatta kulwokano lunno,”//
Mustafa Ssekweyama, the NUP candidate, says that
he wants to build the sub-county in the right place away from the town council.
//Cue in: “Nesimbyewo okubeera…
Cue out…kubyenjigiriza,”//
Joseph Bwete, an independent, says that he wants
to improve the education sector in the Namayumba sub-county.
//Cue in: "Nzize nga tulaba ...
Cue out: …aba ministry ye education,"//
Joseph Muzenze , the National Resistance Movement
party candidate, says that in the last five years when he was in office
Namayumba sub-county had no health center III and he managed to construct one
and a secondary school.
//Cue in: “Ekyo tekitugaana kudayo.....
Cue out: …mubuwereza obulala obudako"//
Wamala Matia Lwanga, The forum for democratic
change, says that Namayumba needs a person who will change it in a few months
and he is ready to change Namayumba in all sectors.
//Cue in “ Waliwo ebintu…
Cue out: …Namayumba tugiza kuntikko."//
Electoral Commission has set December 15 for
the special interest group representatives and December 16 for the rest of the
posts.
