During #morningatntv Press Review on 8th Sept. 2020, there were so far 78 people vying for the position of presidential candidates and picked nomination forms for the 2021 Uganda's General Elections and the number is expected to rise. Indeed what's the reason for the high stakes?
@Kateshd Congratulations👏 for the win. I like how you safeguarded your votes. I like the preparedness with which you went for the polls. With due respect to @Dr_Elioda, he had taken Sheema for granted/ride - the juggling between original Constituency & Municipality. Such a laxity move🤣
