40 arrested as security surround Bobi, Besigye homes

 


At least 41 people who were allegedly planning to disrupt President Museveni’s inauguration ceremony have been arrested, the army has said, as a preventive measure to ensure that the veteran leader swears in for his sixth elective term in office.

National army deputy spokesperson, Col Deo Akiiki told journalists in Kampala that they (security agencies) have continued “to effect several detection, deterrent and preventive security measures to ensure no one hell bent to disrupt the Wednesday function succeeds.”

This- was moments after Uganda’s most notable opposition leaders, Dr Kizza Besigye and Mr Robert Kyagulanyi said their homes had been surrounded security operatives. 

“The military and police have yet again surrounded my residence, as Gen. Museveni prepares to illegally swear himself in this Wednesday! The coward is fully aware that he's illegitimate, and that's why he's very scared of the people. Hang in there comrades. We shall overcome,” Mr Kyagulanyi tweeted on Monday-just after opposition Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) party claimed its founding president and four time presidential candidate Dr Kizza Besigye’s home had equally been surrounded.

“We have been informed that military forces have surrounded Rt. Col. Dr Kizza Besigye’s home this afternoon,” FDC tweeted.

Ahead of President Museveni's forthcoming inauguration, security operatives have voiced concern that dissidents including opposition strongmen Dr Kizza Besigye (left) and Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine- had intent to disrupt proceedings at Mr Museveni’s swearing in ceremony.
