The Independent Electoral Commission (EC) has summoned National Unity Platform (NUP) and Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) presidential candidates, Kyagulanyi Robert Sentamu alias Bobi Wine and Patrick Amuriat for alleged continued breach of the electoral guidelines and standard operating procedures to control the spread of Coronavirus.

In a letter dated December 10, 2020, the EC boss Justice Simon Byabakama accuses the duo of holding processions and mass rallies contrary to the agreed EC COVID-19 SOPs. He said their actions are putting at risk lives of million Ugandans who attend their events.

“Inspite of what the commission communicated in the stated press communications on the matter, you have continued to ignore and /or neglected observing the standard operating procedures by holding mass rallies and processions, contrary to established guidelines thereby risking the lives of the people. In the process this has resulted into unwarranted occasional confrontations with security personnel,” Justice Byabakama said.
