For a while, Bobi Wine’s photos of himself in his free time with his wife, Barbie Kyagulanyi, have always attracted criticism from some social media users.
Critics claim that his posting of “lavish” photos while on holiday with his wife shows he’s unbothered about the “struggle” and his suffering supporters.
Speaking during an interview on local television, Bobi Wine said that he does not do things based on the interests of his critics.
According to Bobi Wine, he had a life before taking on the risk of opposing President Yoweri Museveni’s government.
“Fighting for the issues of the majority of Ugandans does not mean that I should do away with my personal life. I always find time for my family,” said Bobi Wine.
He further explained that the majority of those criticizing his private lifestyle are regime apologists.
“But they forget that Museveni married his wife during his struggle against Amin. They also gave birth to Muhoozi Kainerugaba during the struggle,” he said.
Bobi Wine vowed to continue enjoying his private lifestyle as his choice of joining the “struggle” would not take away his freedom of having fun with his family.
