In the results announced at 9.30 on the morning of Friday January 15, 2021, Robert Kyagolani of the National Unity Platform (NUP) came in second place with a large distance between him and Museveni. Kyagulanyi, to date, has less than half of Museveni results reported and stands at 27.39%.
Patrick Obi Amore of the Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) is currently ranked third with around 3.6% of results announced so far. Places a space between it and the middle of the package.
