EC does not rig for me
Museveni also commented on concerns by the Opposition that the Independent Electoral Commission is biased.
Museveni said that although he has been winning presidential elections for four times — 1996, 2001, 2006 and 2011 — there are certain constituencies such as Arua where he has been losing to the opposition.
“If the EC is biased and rigging for me; how come I lose in many constituencies. Here in Arua, I was losing until 2011. The fact that I lose in some constituencies means that the EC is fair,” he said.
Mayombo Died of Natural Causes
Museveni also responded to questions from journalists regarding public release of the probe report into the death of former chief of military intelligence, Brig. Noble Mayombo, who died on May 1, 2007.
The President said Mayombo died of natural causes and that before his father Canon James Rwabwoni died, he (Museveni) had discussed the matter with him.
“Well, the report is there. Mayombo died of a natural death, which was clear. I am sure his family got the report. I know what the problem was. If they want the report made public, I can talk to the family,” he said.
Museveni was responding to a request made by independent presidential candidate and former Prime Minister Amama Mbabazi that Mayombo’s death report public be made public.
