Election officials were unable to verify voters&#8217; names due to the disruptions.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During a weekly security briefing, Kisoro District Police Commander (DPC) Ben Niwamanya Kashumbusaha confirmed increased deployments to ensure a smooth electoral process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He issued a stern warning, emphasizing a zero-tolerance policy toward electoral misconduct.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;We have received intelligence reports indicating that some individuals plan to travel to these villages to incite violence during the elections. Security will be tight, and we will not hesitate to arrest and prosecute anyone involved in violence, voter intimidation, or any form of electoral malpractice,\u201d Kashumbusaha said.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Cue in \u2026 Kashumbusaha on Security.

controversies nationwide, including allegations of voter bribery, intimidation, and violence. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Authorities hope that heightened security and strict adherence to the voter register will ensure a transparent and peaceful electoral process.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kisoro, Uganda &#8211; The Kisoro District Police have
