Kenya hopes Besigye incident doesn’t sully ties with Uganda
Uganda’s veteran opposition politician, retired colonel Dr Kizza Besigye, stands in the steel dock at the General Court Martial at Makindye, Kampala on November 20, 2024.
Kenyan officials hope the arrest of Ugandan opposition leader Kizza Besigye in Nairobi and his rendition to Uganda last week will not sully ties with the people there.
It is a balance of obligations, some sources told The EastAfrican, coming in the wake of developments that placed Kenya’s reputation as a rule-of-law kind of nation in contradiction to a show of loyalty to a partner nation of Uganda.
