In Butambala parliamentary by elections this Wednesday, two candidates, Muwanga Kivumbi of DP and Faisal Kikulukunyu of the ruling party NRM finished casting their votes.

But there was drama when Kikulukunyu and Muwanga Kivumbi met and each accused the other of sponsoring irregularities in the electoral process. Kikulukunyu accused Muwanga of using DP politicians, who he says included Medard Ssegona, Mathias Mpuga and Lulume Bayiga to give money to voters in the villages.

The Police has already impounded two cars belonging to DP supporters and taken them to Kabasanda Police station until the voting exercise is over. Kikulukunyu cast his vote at Kasanda Ssaza ground at 11:00am.

However Kivumbi confronted Kikulukunyu that it’s his ruling party which is sponsoring voter bribery and using state terror machinery to rig elections in favour of its party candidate in the race.
