Biometric voter kits reported failing on polling day; Kyagulanyi alleges ballot stuffing and arrests of NUP agents

On polling day, NUP presidential candidate Robert Kyagulanyi said biometric voter verification kits had failed across the country and alleged on X that there was widespread ballot stuffing, that NUP leaders including the party's Deputy President for Western Region were arrested, and that many polling agents and supervisors were abducted or chased from polling stations. ANT candidate Gregory Mugisha Muntu also raised concerns about the machines, and the Daily Monitor reported that President Museveni said in Kiruhura that some individuals at the Electoral Commission had failed to deliver the particulars of kit operators.
