Low voter turnout, irregularities mar local council elections

Daily Monitor Thursday January 21 2021 Advertisement Yesterday’s local government elections registered a low turnout countrywide compared to national elections. Ugandans across the country yesterday took to the polls to elect district chairpersons, city mayors and councillors, having elected a President and Members of Parliament (MPs) on January 14 and Special Interest Groups (SIGs) MPs on Monday. Voters that Daily Monitor interviewed yesterday said Ugandans had lost interest in elections, while others accused the Electoral Commission (EC) of failing to sensitise locals about the relevance of local governments.  Local government are key since they are at the forefront of nurturing citizen engagement, service delivery and management of public space. They also monitor lower level units at sub-county level.
