Convicted Candidate

Wobiro Loses Candidacy Rights

Acting Judge Gertrude Tamade, in delivering her judgement this morning, said Mr. Wobiro has lost his right as a candidate.

 “I am of the view that Mr Wobiro does not have an arguable case as yet until the Supreme Court grants him leave to apply for Slip Rule,” she said.

“Mr Wobiro's conviction and sentence still stands without a free pardon.

“I accept the submissions by the Electoral Commission that as of 4:06 pm on 23 June 2022, Mr Wobiro is no longer a candidate as per the Electoral Commissioner's lawful authority to reject his nomination,” she added.
