Uganda's President Yoweri Museveni has appointed a new chairman for the electoral commission, said local media on Friday.
Simon Byabakama will replace former Badru Kiggundu who had retired days ago, Uganda Radio Network (URN) reported on its website.
Byabakama is to be deputized by Hajjati Aisha Lubega, with Peter Emorut, Stephen Tashobya, Prof George Piwang and Mustapha Ssebagala as members of the Commission.
The new appointees replace six commissioners, including Engineer Badru Kiggundu whose term in office expired two days ago after serving in this capacity since November 28, 2002.
