Incumbent Kampala Lord Mayor Erias Lukwago has said he is tempted to believe that the low voter turnout is a making of the Electoral Commission to frustrate voters.

Speaking after casting his ballot at Bulwa polling station in Lubaga division Lukwago said he is baffled by the disorganization that has seen voting in many places begin a little later than the stipulated time.

He noted that in many areas, polling materials arrived late whereas in others, there was confusion which saw ballot papers have bearing candidates from other areas.

He says that such scenarios and the outcome of the just concluded presidential elections have forced many people stay away from participating in the mayor and district leader elections.

Lukwago called up on the Electoral Commission to ensure that the will of the people is not subverted.
