Ugandan opposition leader Bobi Wine said on Saturday he escaped a police and army raid on his house as veteran incumbent Yoweri Museveni looked set to secure an overwhelming official victory margin in a presidential election.
Wines National Unity Platform NUP said on Friday night that an army helicopter had landed in his compound in Kampala and forcibly took him away to an unknown destination a claim denied by police.
Wine, a former pop star whose real name is Robert Kyagulanyi, said in a post on X he had managed to flee the raid.
