Kamukama claimed that nominating Muheesi by the national electoral commission would be derogatory and would make the commission loss a lot of money

Where as Muheesi through her lawyer Mark Mugisha opposed the injunction on grounds that if granted NRM party will go into general elections without a candidate yet the application had been overtaken by events.
