Elections here have been missed by most of the world because of all that is happening across North Africa.
Last Friday, the nation went to vote and we are thankful that it was all relatively peaceful. We had a polling station just 20 metres from our home and have had a heavy police precence on the road for a few days, so we stayed at home most of the time.
On Sunday 20th Feb, President Museveni was declared the winner. He has been re elected with 68% of the vote.
The opposition parties have already declared that they do not accept the vote, so we pray that in the coming days they will express their opinions in a peaceful way.
