National Unity Platform President Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine was arrested immediately after landing at Entebbe International Airport. Bobi Wine was returning to Uganda after a tour of NUP diaspora conventions, the last one being in South Africa.
There were plans by thousands of NUP supporters to welcome Bobi Wine at Entebbe International Airport.
“Our President (Bobi Wine) picked up by regime operatives as soon as he landed at the airport,” David Lewis Rubongoya, the general secretary of Wine’s National Unity Platform said on X, formerly Twitter.
The post was accompanied by a photo appearing to show two men seizing him by the arms on the tarmac at Entebbe International Airport.
Wine’s supporters had planned to accompany him en masse to his home north of the capital, Kampala, to welcome him back, but police had said such gatherings were illegal.
