{UAH} General elections reflected the will of the people – President Museveni

Below is the statement;

"The lawyers normally talk of "reasonable men" when referring to what
people can believe or otherwise. As the Monitor newspaper,
notwithstanding your nature, would realize, Judges are "reasonable men
and women" plus, plus. That is how they become Judges in the first
place.

I am not surprised, therefore, that they found that the General
Elections held on the 18th of February, reflected the will of the
people of Uganda. In fact, the NRM scored more votes but many of them
were suppressed as invalid votes – almost 5% of the total votes cast.
We did not bother to complain about this because we had enough votes
to decisively win. Why inconvenience Ugandans with unnecessary
altercation?

It also shows how institutions of the state have grown and recovered
from the problems of the 1960s, 70s and early 1980s.

I salute the people of Uganda and the State Institutions of Uganda. I
also salute the NRM fraternity for their efforts during the whole
electoral cycle."

Gen. Yoweri Kaguta Museveni
CHAIRMAN NRM AND PRESIDENT
OF THE REPUBLIC OF UGANDA
