He continued by saying that the ballots would be stored in a secure location to prevent tampering and interference with any voting-related documents.
He continued by disbelieving rumors that some ballots would arrive from Uganda.
“Today we will receive a number of ballot papers and they are not from Uganda or some funny place, they are secure for the election, there is nothing like extra ballot papers like some politicians have claimed,” stated Chebukati.
