Monday 11th June 2012 is the mega rally and the end of campaigns ahead of the by elections scheduled for 13th-July-2012 in the by-election of Bushenyi-ishaka municipality.
This comes after the appeal Court last month nullified the election of Hon. Nasser Bassajjabalaba after the panel of judges led by justice Mpagi Bahigeine agreed with the petitioner, Odo Tayebwa of FDC that Basajjabalaba’s election was punctuated with bribery but what is on the ground FDC’s Odo Tayebwa was doing well in all his rallies and now his main rally which is ongoing FDC has dispatched the machinery it unleashed just recently in February which saw FDC’s Mwiru Paul trouncing NRM’s Igeme Nathan Nabeta. Meanwhile the Court of Appeal on Monday nullified the election of FDC’s Winfred Kiiza as Kasese district woman MP.
The court ordered for fresh elections. The judges concurred with the petitioner ms Rehema Muhindo that there was non-compliance of the electoral laws which affected the polls results.
