On January 17, National Unity Platform (NUP) party leaders paraded a limping and wailing man, a resident of Ssempijja Zone in Bukoto, a Kampala City suburb, before journalists.
They claimed he had been attacked in the middle of the night by security operatives, whom he said battered him.
Mr Andrew Natumanya, who was an agent of NUP’s presidential candidate Robert Kyagulanyi, alias Bobi Wine, in the January 14 election, said in addition to being roughed up, security personnel took away his valuables, including laptops, cameras, a mobile phone and results declaration forms from the presidential election.

Summary
About Jinja City. On 1 July 2020, the government of Uganda awarded city status to about one half-a-dozen municipalities. Jinja was one of those localities. As part of the qualifications to become a city, Jinja expanded to include the former Jinja Municipality, Bugembe Town Council, Mafubira Sub-county and Budondo Sub-county. The estimated population of the new city, as of October 2020, is about 300,000.

This is because they are all basing their campaign pledges on three issues of developing tourism, promoting health and women empowerment, leaving voters with limited choice.
