Uganda opposition leader Robert Kyagulanyi Ssentamu received Electoral Commission nomination Wednesday for the 2026 presidential race. The National Unity Platform candidate describes the upcoming campaign as warfare imposed by oppressors. Kyagulanyi warns supporters of impending danger while traversing the country seeking votes. He emphasizes carrying historical responsibility for millions of Ugandans.

The 2021 election marked Uganda's most violent campaign period according to observers. Security forces clashed with civilians, resulting in dozens of deaths during widespread demonstrations. Kyagulanyi's arrest in Luuka district triggered nationwide unrest that killed 56 people per President Museveni's count. The opposition leader disputes this figure, claiming over 100 fatalities occurred.

Museveni secured victory with 56 percent against Kyagulanyi's 37 percent in 2021. However, the defeated candidate maintains electoral fraud determined the outcome.
