Ugandan opposition to challenge election results
The main opposition party will challenge Uganda’s presidential and parliamentary election results in court, charging that officials did not allow a large number of voters to cast their ballots and the results were falsified.
On Saturday, the Electoral Commission in Kampala declared President Yoweri Museveni winner of the presidential poll held on Thursday. The president, who has held power for more than 20 years, won 59.28% of the votes, according to results from 99% of polling stations.
