WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW.
Court of appeal early this year ruled out the election petition between Masaba Ivan and Wambedde Seth where it dismissed the case with costs.
The court of appeal also confirmed Wambedde Seth as the duly elected Northern Division, Mbale City Member of Parliament.
Seth Wambende was dragged to court by Ivan Masaba accusing him and the Electoral Commission of electoral malpractice contrary to the Parliamentary Election's law. Ivan Masaaba, one of the candidates in the January Parliamentary election scored 9415 votes while Wambede got 9854 votes. Masaaba challenged Wambende’s election saying that the electoral commission failed to conduct the elections as per the law.
Masaba had held that there was falsification, especially at Makosi polling station. Masaba asked the court to set aside Wambende’s victory and declare him the duly elected MP for Northern City Division.
