Justice Kanyeihamba opposes political party representatives for EC

This March might turn out to be the most important month in the run up to the February 2011 presidential and parliamentary elections.

Whether the 2011 outcome will be good or bad depends on the outcome of four Bills that must be disposed of by parliament this month namely; the Political Parties and Organisations (Amendment) Bill 2009, the Electoral Commission (Amendment) Bill 2009, the Parliamentary Elections (Amendment) Bill 2009 and the Presidential Elections (Amendment) Bill 2009.

The man at the centre of this crucial legislation is Badru Kigundu and the Uganda Electoral Commission which he chairs.

Deliberations of these crucial Bills is ongoing in the committees of Parliament. However, already the omens do not look good.
