Kyadondo East MP Kyagulanyi Sentamu aka Bobi Wine has been arrested upon landing at Entebbe International Airport today, on his return from the US.
A statement issued by Kampala Police Commander, Frank Mwesigwa says that Bobi Wine will be in custody until he answers questions regarding a speech he made that went viral regarding the now infamous “Togikwaatako” bill.
In the speech, he condemned the removal of the presidential age limit and indirectly ridiculed parties involved in the conspiracy to see president Yoweri Museveni continue his more than three decades rule in 2021, when he will have exceeded the 75 year limit for a presidential candidate.
Bobi Wine has been in New York where he delivered a speech at the global Gate Keeper’s conference on invitation of the world’s richest man Bill Gates. Former US president Barrack Obama and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau were some of the notable figures. Bobi Wine’s speech at the conference focused on making decisive political change.
