The day’s political activities in Nebbi District concluded with an energetic appearance by National Unity Platform (NUP) president Robert Kyagulanyi, also known as Bobi Wine, who urged residents to support his party in the upcoming elections.
Addressing a large crowd, Kyagulanyi emphasized the significance of voting for the umbrella symbol—NUP’s official emblem—describing it as central to what he called “the new Uganda.” He told supporters that a vote for the umbrella represented a stand against corruption, poor governance, unjust policies, unemployment, and political persecution.
Kyagulanyi’s message was particularly directed at the people of West Nile, whom he addressed as “Awadifo my beloved brothers and sisters,” encouraging them to remain steadfast in the struggle for political change.
The Nebbi rally marked the final engagement of the day for the opposition leader, who stated that his team would head to Arua next—an area he described as significant to the rise of the People Power movement.
Bobi Wine’s entrance in Nebbi drew widespread attention from residents and supporters, many of whom turned up to hear his message ahead of the next phase of his regional tour.
