She alleges he lacked the minimum academic qualifications and questions his identity documents, and accuses the Electoral Commission of altering results, mistallying and voter suppression. She asks the court to declare her the winner; the EC had declared Mr Kasirye winner with 17,700 votes to her 15,522.
