The president of the National Economic Empowerment Dialogue, Joseph Kiiza Kabuleta, has petitioned the Electoral Commission seeking reinstatement in the 2026 presidential race. Only eight presidential candidates were successfully nominated by the Electoral Commission by the end of the exercise on Wednesday. Kabuleta says that despite presenting all the necessary requirements for nomination, his bid was kicked out.
According to Kabuleta, if EC fails to respond to his request, he is ready to challenge its decisions in courts of law to ensure he is reinstated in the presidential race.
