Ugandan opposition leader Robert Kyagulanyi, popularly known as Bobi Wine, has gone into hiding after security operatives raided his residence, amid heightened tensions following last week’s disputed presidential election.
Wine said he narrowly escaped the raid and has since been constantly on the move, relying on supporters for shelter and protection. He also alleged that his wife and other relatives have been placed under house arrest by security forces.
The singer-turned-politician was the main challenger to long-serving President Yoweri Museveni in the January 2026 presidential election. Official results declared Museveni winner with about 72 per cent of the vote, while Wine was credited with just under 25 per cent. Wine has rejected the outcome, describing the election as “blatant theft.”
Speaking on the future of his National Unity Platform (NUP), Wine said there was no fixed strategy at the moment, noting
