Ugandan opposition says over 300 supporters detained in presidential campaign
Ugandan Presidential candidate Robert Kyagulanyi, also known as Bobi Wine, of the National Unity Platform Party, waves to supporters as he campaigns ahead of the general elections in Kampala, Uganda.
Security forces in Uganda have detained more than 300 supporters and officials from the party of opposition presidential candidate Bobi Wine since campaigning for a January election kicked off last month, his party's spokesperson said on Tuesday.
Pop star-turned-politician Wine, whose real name is Robert Kyagulanyi, is challenging 81-year-old President Yoweri Museveni for the second time after coming second in the last election in 2021.
