Museveni: Biometric Voting Will End NUP’s Tricks in 2026
President Yoweri Museveni has warned opposition parties, especially the National Unity Platform (NUP), ahead of the 2026 general elections.
Speaking in Greater Luwero about the Parish Development Model and Emyooga funds, Museveni said biometric voting will make the next elections fraud-proof.
Museveni claimed that NUP outshone the ruling NRM in Buganda in the previous election and closely rivaled them in Busoga due to what he called “election cheating.” He accused NUP of working hand-in-hand with the Electoral Commission to rig results. However, he added that the upcoming elections will be different.
“Don’t blame the people of Buganda and Busoga,” Museveni said.
“They weren’t the problem. We have proof of what the opposition did with the Electoral Commission. But this time, it won’t happen,” He added.
The president announced that biometric machines will be used in 2026, and fingerprints will be a must for anyone to vote. Without registration, you won’t be allowed near a ballot.
Museveni is confident this technology will guarantee a massive NRM win, saying it will eliminate any chance for cheating, from presidential races down to local by-elections like the recent one in Kawempe North.
