Only registered mosques and their faithfuls will be allowed to participate in the forthcoming nationwide Uganda Muslim Supreme Council-UMSC polls.

According to the drafted roadmap by UMSC, mosque committee elections will take place on September 29th, county elections on October 6th, and district polls on October 13, 2022.

However, it has emerged several Imams have been blocked from registering mosques with UMSC saying that although the majority of Imams recognize the council, founders of some mosques pay allegiance to the rival Kibuli faction.
