Wearing a stripped yellow shirt, Kigongo tasked MP Mawiya to explain the whereabouts of over 12,000 votes from 4 parishes. He accused Mawiya of tarnishing the party's image by involving in vote rigging and bribery.
Kigongo who was accompanied by Kavuma Nvumetta, Kalangala Women MP also recorded statements from Vincent Ssempijja the complainant, Umar Ssebulime greater Masaka NRM administrative secretary, Kalungu district NRM returning officer for their role in disputed polls.
He then addressed a section of NRM supporters and told that he had come back to conduct investigation over the disputed polls.
Kigongo said that he will move from village by village to ascertain the results especially in Kiweesa, Lusango, and Kiti parishes.
Mawiya has however apologized for the irregularities in the polls, but insists that he won the polls.
