NUP accuses Electoral Commission of ceding its role to security forces after Kyagulanyi arrest

NUP spokesperson Joel Ssenyonyi told URN that the Electoral Commission had handed its supervisory role over the campaigns to security forces, which he said allowed police to arrest and detain the party's presidential candidate illegally. Police have said their role is to enforce Electoral Commission and Ministry of Health COVID-19 guidelines; the Commission's spokesperson could not be reached.
