The Electoral Commission has discovered that some LCI executives forge commission’s appointment letters.

The commission’s chairperson, Eng. Badru Kiggundu has asked the police to investigate all persons on LCI committees who forge the commission’s appointment letters.

Kiggundu says that the commission has received information that in Makindye Division in Kampala, some people last week forged EC appointment letters purporting that the commission had appointed them as LCI chairpersons.

Kiggundu says that most forgeries of the commission’s appointment letters have been taking place Sekindi, Upper Katuuso and Bukasa in Makindye division among others.

Kiggundu has told our informer that the Inspector General of Police, Maj. Gen. Kale Kayihura has promised the commission that the force is to investigate those alleged forgeries to the last end. Kiggundu also says that the commission is preparing to organise fresh LCI polls. The LCI polls were last held in 2001.
