Hello dear friends ladies and gentlemen wherever you’re globally how are you? I’m a Ugandan man and a voter,for me what i want is peaceful,free and fair elections in the upcoming 2021 presidential elections. what i saw from 1980-1985 when president museveni got into power,such regime or situation for me I don’t want it to come back but I’m not the one who decides for the whole country. in those days some of us we suffered a lot what the new generation didn’t face but they keep saying they want it to come back again. free and fair elections worldwide is still hard even USA its president Trump didn’t agree with his defeat. we are waiting for 2021 elections but we don’t know whether there’s peaceful after elections we’re still confused.
