Own goal: EC posts fake results to dispel "fake news" : vima

March 4, 2021
EC spokesperson Paul Bukenya
In an attempt to counter what it calls "fake news", the Electoral Commission (EC) has released the declaration form from Anyang polling station in Padyere county, Nebbi district.
However, the figures on the declaration form don’t add up and contradict what is on its tally sheet. The declaration form tweeted by EC shows that 323 votes were cast at that polling station yet after totalling the votes that candidates got and the invalid votes; the figure comes to 247 votes. This gives a difference of 76 votes.    
The Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) candidate, Patrick Amuriat got 6 votes, while independent candidates Nancy Kalembe and John Katumba got one vote each. National Unity Platform (NUP) candidate Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine garnered 8 votes, Fred Mwesigye and Mugisha Muntu got 4 votes each, Henry Tumukunde got 2 votes and Yoweri Kaguta Museveni of the National Resistance Movement (NRM) got 198 votes.
