The EC Chairperson, Justice Byabakama Mugenyi Simon: The Commission appeals to the Government to consider and approve the creation of new administrative units in a timely manner, so that the electoral program and budget are not destabilized.

The Minister of Justice and Constitutional Affairs, Hon.

: The issues raised such as the need to enact laws to enable the elections are very vital. These are issues that keep Ugandans waiting.
