Harriet Nakamya the Kanungu Resident District Commissioner has come out and physically apologized for interfering in last the year's ruling National Resistance Movement party primary elections where candidates she favored but lost were instead announced as winners.

Nakamya made the apology today Wednesday while speaking at  Idi El fitri day prayers at Kihihi main mosque in Kihihi town council ,Kanungu district.

"I am sorry for what ever did not go well during the election especially where some people were not declared winners in the NRM primaries last year," She said.

Nakamya called for total forgiveness and pledged to work with everyone who was eventually elected as a leader at any level regardless of the parties they belong.

In November last year during the Kanungu NRM primary elections, losers were announced as winners who included Jacqueline Kyatuheire for Kinkiizi West MP, Ruth Karungi for district woman MP,Godie Willy Bakiga for LC 5 and Deus Tugume for Kihihi town council chairman.

Those who were sidelined by the RDC for  being pro Amama Mbabazi and eventually won at national election  include Kinkiizi West MP Hon James Ruggi Kaberuka, Kanungu District Woman MP Hon Elizabeth Karungi Beikirize, Kanungu LC 5 chairperson Josephine Kasya and Zepher Mugisha the Kihihi  Town council LC 3 chairman among many others.

It took the intervention of Josephine Kasya and others who reported the matter to president Museveni who also  sent a verification team headed by the NRM vice chairman Al Haj Moses Kigongo before rightful winners was eventually announced as NRM flag bearers in different areas
