Description Stick-wielding thugs with links to the Kampala mayoral candidate for the ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM) party, Peter Ssematimba, assaulted six journalists at the Kakeeka polling station, in Rubaga Parish, in Kampala's Lubaga division. There are indications that the hooligans formulated a plan to beat up journalists since they called media houses to say that Ssematimba was going to vote at the Kakeeka polling station at 10:00 a.m. and they requested a media presence.
