Uganda's top general just told the main opposition figure to turn himself in or else. The army commander, Muhoozi Kainerugaba, used social media to order Bobi Wine, whom he called Kabobi, to surrender to the police. Kainerugaba stated the National Unity Platform leader would be considered an outlaw and handled by security forces if he refused. He added that President Yoweri Museveni was not responsible for these comments.
Bobi Wine fired back with his own posts, accusing the commander of sending troops to raid his home in Magere. He claimed soldiers cut power, messed with security cameras, and used helicopters. Bobi Wine insisted he escaped the raid and remains in hiding, adding that his wife and family are stuck under house arrest. He vowed to reappear only when he chooses.
The opposition leader continues to reject the election results announced by Simon Byabakama of the Electoral Commission. He alleges widespread ballot stuffing, military meddling, and the detention of his party's officials. The government denies cheating and says its security moves are meant to stop violence.
Deadly incidents in the Butambala district have raised tensions further. Authorities claimed armed groups attacked a polling place, but area MP Muwanga Kivumbi said civilians were killed at his residence instead. With heavy security still present in Kampala and other cities, this public clash has deepened worries about military overreach and potential escalation.
