The reality of upcoming 2021 Elections in Uganda

For those who think the upcoming elections is everything. I hate to dissapoint you but these elections are not anything beyond being the legal/constitutional means of contest for power where the outcome is not guaranteed to be neither free nor fair

In practice elections only help to bring all sides together to create a semblance of the citizen  participation and exercising democratic right to choice of leaders.  They therefore help to organise tensions sorrounding the different political convictions into structured form such that these tensions are easy to deal with through established legal mechanism where anything outside the outcome of the process can be talked about after the population has hit the ceiling of excitement or genuine agitation. 

At that moment the masses will be feeling they have been given an opportunity to participate in making decision. In actual fact, in some cases their choice will be respected but in other cases their choice will have been taken away through manipulation and cheating,  yet whatever the outcome it can legally be attributed to them.

Unfortunately this is the sad reality of electoral politics in uganda and many other African countries
