Todwong also explained that it was unfair for some of the opposition candidate to create ethnic differences during the campaigns.

“Some of the oppositions thought that they were more Banyole compared to Florence because her father comes from West Nile but that could not prevent the NRM supporters from electing Florence Andiru”, The  Minister told Uganda Picks

Florence Andiru Nebanda won the Butaleja by Election challenging Felistas Namwihiri for the FDC, Betty Hamba, Sarah Annet Logose, and Munaba Perusi who contested the poll as independent candidates.
