Justice Simon Peter Kinobe of the High Court in Kampala dismissed Daniel Mulirire's appeal against the Electoral Commission's annulment of his nomination for Budiope East Constituency, Buyende District. The court found he had not given sufficient proof of resignation from the Uganda Police Force, rejected his challenges on the constitutionality of the resignation requirement, the Commission's quorum and his right to a fair hearing, and ordered each party to bear its own costs.
