Former National Unity Platform (NUP) candidate for Masaka City Woman MP, Hon. Rose Nalubowa, has taken the 2026 parliamentary election dispute to the High Court, challenging the outcome of the race won by NRM candidate Hon. Justine Nameere.
Nalubowa shared an official High Court notice on her X account relating to Election Petition No. 05 of 2026, filed against Masaka City Woman MP-elect and State Minister for Local Government, Justine Nameere, and others before Justice Bernard Namanya.
In her post, Nalubowa cited the famous saying, “Justice delayed is justice denied,” before adding, “Better late than never.” She also called for divine intervention, expressing hope that the truth would ultimately prevail.
The petition is scheduled for a court mention on September 14, 2026, setting the stage for a legal battle over the Masaka City Woman MP seat.
The dispute follows a contentious election process in which Nalubowa was initially declared the winner before a petition and subsequent recount resulted in Nameere being declared victorious.
Nalubowa has now challenged the process in court, putting Nameere’s victory under judicial scrutiny.
However, the High Court has not yet made a determination on the petition, with the case expected to take its next step during the scheduled mention.
Justice delayed is Justice denied. However, better late than never. May the God of Justice lift His hand upon the Judicial officer in this case and May Truth and Justice be seen and done. pic.twitter.com/pkFHSZ7zli

The dispute is among several legal challenges emerging from Uganda’s 2026 parliamentary elections as successful candidates begin their five-year term in the 2026–2031 Parliament.
