The Speaker of Parliament, Rebecca Kadaga has faulted Electoral Commission and Government for failure to gazette the specific date for the 2021 general elections.
According to the Electoral Commission, the general elections will take place between January 10th and February 8th, 2021.
The Commission is yet to specify the exact date for the presidential and parliamentary elections, which has drawn the attention of parliament.
However, the Attorney General, William Byaruhanga, says the Commission is obliged by law to communicate the specific date for the General election after finalizing with the presidential and parliamentary nominations.
On Tuesday, parliament tasked Government to explain the failure to communicate the exact polling dates.
According to Kadaga, the lack of clarity on the polling dates is stopping candidates from making their campaign programs.
CUE. KADAGA DATE ENG.
