Opposition NUP leader Bobi Wine has written to President Yoweri Museveni, daring him to accept a public scrutiny of the last presidential election outcome.

Bobi Wine divulged at a press conference on Monday morning, some of the details of his letter to the head of state.

He among others, challenged Museveni to waive his presidential immunity for a show-down in courts of law.

Bobi Wine’s letter follows recent claims by President Museveni that the opposition party rigged the 2021 election.

President Museveni has since 2021 polls claimed that Kyagulanyi turned the tables on rigging machinations.

Speaking during a thanksgiving service for the late General Aronda Nyakairima, Mr Museveni said he has concrete evidence to support his claim and challenged NUP to confront him if they believe he is making false accusations.

The President explained that the alleged vote rigging was facilitated by electoral agents at polling stations who failed to properly oversee the election process.

He acknowledged that election cheating is a widespread issue in Uganda’s political landscape, with some politicians embracing fraudulent tactics to gain power.

According to Museveni, the only way to eliminate electoral malpractices is through the introduction of electronic voting systems.

He proposed that elections at any polling station where electronic voting machines malfunction should be suspended until the issue is resolved.

The President also reflected on Uganda’s troubled electoral history, highlighting that the country’s election problems date back to the 1960s when the Uganda People’s Congress was at the center of alleged election rigging.

Museveni stressed that biometric verification through fingerprint identification is essential to ensuring free and fair elections, as no two individuals have identical fingerprints.

Mr Museveni believes this method would prevent voter impersonation and guarantee the integrity of the electoral process.
