The ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM) party on Monday swept all the five youth slots across the country.

Youth elections are held through the electoral college system of voting. Under the system, only a few youth or voters, who are delegates, represent the majority voters.  Youth comprise 78 per cent of the country’s population.

In eastern Uganda, Mr Bernard Odoi Onene Mutusa, the NRM flag bearer, was declared winner.

In western Uganda, Mr Edson Rugumayo (NRM) was declared duly elected after polling 1,419 votes.

Across to the north, the seat went to NRM’s Boniface Henry Okot, 28, from Lango Sub-region, who garnered 1,280 votes.  He is from Kole District.

In the central, Ms Agnes Kirabo was declared winner, beating six other candidates.

The routing out of the Opposition from national youth election was completed with the NRM party scooping the National Female Youth representative, a slot that was taken by Ms Phiona Nyamutoro from Nebbi District.
