By Sania Babirye

A member of the ruling National Resistance Movement David Kamukama has gone to the high court in Kampala challenging the nomination of  fellow party member and also minister of Science and Technology Elioda Tumwesigye's nomination in the coming party primary for  the Sheema municipality  elections.

Kamukama says Tumwesigye who is also the current MP for Sheema North's nomination   is illegal because he was nominated out of time which was four days after the official nomination program.

He is now seeking court to quash minister Tumwesigye's nomination.

The party primaries are slated for the 31st of this month while elections will take place on the 19th of July 2018.
