Voting in Uganda kicked off at 7 am local time, with over 20 million registered voters set to cast their ballots in an election in which the incumbent, Yoweri Museveni, is seeking another term. The Kenya Times begins its live coverage as Uganda Decides.

Uganda's President Yoweri Museveni, fresh from winning a seventh term at age 81, said Sunday that the opposition were "terrorists" who had tried to use violence to overturn results.

The government has barred live broadcasts of riots and “unlawful processions” as President Yoweri Museveni seeks another term.

Technical failures at polling places have caused disruptions, and the opposition has warned of government vote rigging amid an internet blackout.
