Some of the youth while voting

There was a stir and increased fierceness at almost all members fighting each other, at Naluvule village in Wakoba ward in Nakisunga Sub County in Mukono district during the election of youth leaders at the parish level.

The situation escalated after the NRM, led by Parish Vice chairperson  Christopher Mwase and other NRM leaders, started ambushing the youths who had come to vote and pushed them into their homes, such as the village chairman and NRM chairman Dorothy Nabanja, promising them money.

This has upset the NUP members, and they decided to go back to the road to wait for their own, but they were shocked when the NRM members started to pull some of their voters who followed the exchange of words and put them to task; they disrupted the youth election, yet they are old.

All this has been going on as the voter's registrar, they are on endless phone calls, and after a while, they called the youths to vote, and those who were kept at the chairperson Nabanja's residence came out of the group to go to the pitch where the polls were conducted.

The electoral officers first addressed the voter, and then started reading their names as everyone who was on the register entered the circle, and the polling started on nine seats; however, they were all won by NUP candidates.

However, there was a drama among one of the candidates for the post of Publicity Secretary when  Ronald Sekatte of the NRM, who was contesting with   Owen Wayirisa of NUP and Sekatte declined to contest and elected NUP members. When it came to his turn to be voted, he left the NUP line and went to the NRM and was denied pinning him that he betrayed them and here so Wayirisa won, and in talking about it but Sekatte says he is choosing ability and not the parties, and his colleagues have been beating him.

Some of the candidates who won the positions, including a journalist, Stuart Katende, vice chairperson of youth and Mathias Balukusa, chairperson, said the election was tough after the NRM officials stayed in the village and took some of the voters. And some of them did not turn up with the aim of wanting to lose, but they have also won.

They went on to say that the victory they have achieved is another big for them and applauds the youth in the area for not selling their services by the token of money but choosing the capacity and they promised to be shown by working together with their colleagues without discrimination Because services do not look at the political parties.

Amos Mafaba, who was seeking the post of vice Chairperson of the ward and NRM vice Chairperson  Christopher Mwase, said treachery, not deciding hypocrisy, are among the things which the NRM party would lose, but promised to sit down with the authorities to sort it out.
