Uganda: New-look parliament as big names fall in poll

Big name losers in the Uganda general election and surprise wins in key constituencies have brought into focus what shape the country's eighth parliament is likely to take. A sizeable chunk of President Museveni's Cabinet were defeated in last week's general election. Significantly, powerful voices that characterised legislation in the past 10 years have been silenced or have dropped out, leaving the field for new MPs to take up the mantle of leadership.
