Sembabule had emerged as one of the areas with stiff competition where the enthusiasm of supporters for various candidates has in some cases resulted in fights in the party polls.
Embarrassed by the many episodes of violence, bribery and cheating by altering results in Friday’s ruling party flagbearer polls, President Museveni also party chairman on Monday penned a missive asking those who have been cheated to come up with proof for the perpetrators to be prosecuted.
Mr. Museveni, who also confirmed that Labour Minister Mwesigwa Rukutana would be held accountable for the shooting incident he was pictured in at Ntungamo on Saturday wrote:
“The shallow crooks still think they can bribe, can intimidate, can assault or can, even, alter results of the obvious that was witnessed by hundreds. This is an incredible shallowness”.
He said: “The cheating in the NRM Primaries is over. Those who beat People, like in Bukono, are all in jail or on the run. Minister Rukutana is in jail and will be prosecuted. They will be fully accountable with robust charges: assault, attempted murder, murder etc”.
In Sembabule district, Museveni’s young brother Sodo Aine Kaguta is tussling it out with Shatsi Kutesa Musherure in a hotly contested race which resulted into postponement of the elections.
