Uganda: Afromobile Brings the Election Home to the World

13 January 2026

As Uganda heads to the polls this week, attention is focused not only on polling stations across the country but also on millions of Ugandans living abroad and global audiences keenly following one of the region's most significant democratic moments.

For many in the diaspora, access to reliable, real-time and comprehensive election coverage has often been fragmented.

AfroMobile is now stepping in to close that gap by bringing the entire election experience onto one digital platform.
