Foreign election observers good for nothing..!!

Uganda had presidential elections on 23rd February 2006. There was a whole battalion of foreign (European Union, Commonwealth, African Union..etc) observers in the country....

And after all the chaos, that prevailed...the 'honourable' tourists did not have the guts to speak out on the mass irregularities in the polls. They apparently did not see that the Electoral Commission did not announce all the results certified by stakeholders of all political parties.

Hail holy foreign observers and your double standards!!

Hi
Hi Charles,
i notie you have a rather very strong opinion on the relevance of foreign observers during elctions.
However, sometimes these observers are curtailed in movement by the hosting governments. They are only shown what the government wants them to see and as such, they often do not witness the election irregularities that you so passionately refer to.

It would be wrong to write off these foreign observers all together, as indeed they have done a good job recently in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
