US calls for investigation of election fraud

The United States government has called for a transparent investigation of the opposition charges of fraud in Thursday’s general election that saw President Yoweri Museveni retain his seat.

The call was made on Friday by the State Department Deputy Spokesperson, Mr Adam Ereli, soon after partial returns from the polling stations started coming in.
“There have been reports of administrative and procedural irregularities by observers, as well as other claims of irregularities by the opposition. Those claims need to be investigated,” Ereli said.

According to the Voice Of Africa report, the US assessment of the poll and call for the investigation was based on reports from American diplomats in Kampala.

Prior to the Thursday polls, the US Embassy in Kampala issued a statement saying it would dispatch 60 observers to cover 13 districts in the central, northern, western and eastern regions of the country.
