And your point B the Kiiza Besigye happens to be very sick to the extent that
Mugisha Muntu a car robberer now holds the helm of FDC, may be just may be
Ugandans now have Ocii as plan C. Unbelievable how we as a people have failed
to wonder how UPC has won this seat and start a new discussion on how the plat
form of this electorate has started to move despite the lies of FDC and to
wonder how Maama Miria's leadership has some how survived to lead a seat in
parliament. But hoi we are in a car accident and we need a plan B. We need to
some how slow down and look at Uganda issues with reality for reality is
starting to hit home.
Lies only work part time.

This is one among many reasons there is need for point B to be able to
usher in a more nationalist and Africancentric constitution, enabling thorough
investigations into such deaths, and the perpetrator/s punishable by death, if
the death proves motivated by any form of hatred!

UPC takes Oyam South MP seat
SAMUEL O. EGADU
OYAM
Uganda Peoples Congress has defeated the ruling NRM in the hotly
contested Oyam South parliamentary by-elections.
District returning officer Robert Beine declared UPC's Issa Otto winner
just after 11:00pm on Thursday.
Mr Otto polled 8,842 votes against NRM candidate Patrick Ogwang's
5,352. Mr Ogwang came third in the race.
Independent candidate Nelson Adea was the second with 6,541 votes while
Ruth Ataala Adupa (independent) came last with 1,111 votes.
The seat fell vacant following the death of former member of Parliament
Yefusa Okullo Epak who succumbed to lung cancer at a South Africa hospital in
April.
Celebrations
Jubilant UPC supporters danced and sang party songs upon hearing the
news of Mr Otto's victory.
The hotly contested seat attracted several NRM officials including
Dorothy Hyuha, minister without portfolio, Daniel Omara Atubo, minister of
lands, housing and urban development and Musa Ecweru, state minister for
disaster preparedness and refugees who camped in Oyam to rally support for NRM
candidate Ogwang.
Dokolo Woman MP Cecilia Ogwal (independent) also camped in Oyam to
campaign for Mr Adea.
There was low voter turn out as only 21,426 people voted out 93,803
registered voters in Oyam South constituency, representing just only 22.8%.
Cancelled results
Mr Beine said results of Aweikwo polling station were cancelled on
ground that the presiding officer did not submit declaration forms from all the
polling agents.
The elections were characterised by confusion, intimidation, voter
bribery and death.
At least two people were confirmed dead including Charles Awany, a UPC
party mobiliser, who was knocked dead by a speeding vehicle at Loro Trading
Centre on Lira-Kamdini highway.
