Presidential candidate John Katumba is now hopeful of reasonable response from the Electoral Commission when he goes there on Monday to table evidence against the security officers.
Katumba believes that the tangible evidence he has will compel EC Chairman Simon Byabakama to prevail on the police to stop brutalizing him, his campaign team and the supporters on the
ground.
Katumba who is currently conducting a door to door campaign
in Wakiso district says that before he resumes normal activities on Monday, he
will walk to the Electoral Commission and present his grievances to justice
Simon Byabakama, the head of the commission over the continued insecurity in
the campaign exercise.

Gen. David Muhoozi and the IGP Martin Okoth Ochora at the electoral commission
offices says that although he had hoped to get some relief from the police and
other security agencies which are confronting him during his campaigns, the
situation is only becoming worse.
