In a stunning revelation, opposition leader Robert Kyagulanyi, known as Bobi Wine, has exposed President Yoweri Museveni’s alleged plans to undermine Uganda’s electoral process. According to Bobi Wine, Museveni intends to eliminate direct presidential elections and instead secure his position through a parliamentary vote, a move that critics are calling a severe threat to the country’s democratic foundations.

During a press conference held in Kampala, Bobi Wine stated, “Museveni is working behind the scenes to change the rules of the game. He knows he cannot win in a free and fair election, so now he wants to make sure that the parliament, which he controls through bribes and intimidation, will be the one to decide the presidency. This is a clear attempt to cling to power indefinitely.”

The opposition leader went on to describe how Museveni has allegedly been orchestrating backroom deals to make this shift in Uganda’s electoral system a reality. “This is not just about Museveni’s hunger for power—it’s about crushing the voice of the Ugandan people,” Bobi Wine added, urging citizens and the international community to remain vigilant against these maneuvers.

Museveni’s History of Rigged Elections

Bobi Wine’s allegations come in the wake of numerous controversial elections in Uganda, many of which have been marred by accusations of rigging, voter suppression, and intimidation. The 2021 general elections, which saw Museveni claim victory for the sixth consecutive term, were widely criticized for widespread irregularities. Election observers reported military interference, the arrest of opposition figures, and the shutdown of the internet during crucial periods of voting.

“These are not new tactics from Museveni,” Bobi Wine emphasized. “He has rigged every election he’s participated in since the 1990s. In 2021, the evidence was clear for everyone to see—ballot boxes were stuffed, opposition agents were detained, and the security forces were deployed to intimidate voters.”

If the president’s alleged plans succeed, Uganda could see the end of direct presidential elections, marking a dramatic shift away from the democratic ideals that many fought for. Bobi Wine, who has been a vocal advocate for free and fair elections, warned that this would be the final nail in the coffin for Uganda’s already fragile democracy.

“This is not just about politics—it’s about the future of our country. Removing elections will take us back to the days of dictatorship, where the people have no say in their leadership,” Bobi Wine cautioned. “We must resist this with all our strength.”

Bobi Wine’s revelations have sparked outrage among civil society groups, political commentators, and ordinary citizens. Many see this as Museveni’s latest move to consolidate his 38-year rule, transforming Uganda into a one-party state controlled by the National Resistance Movement (NRM).

Analysts fear that if Museveni is allowed to bypass elections and secure power through parliamentary votes, Uganda could face greater instability, as many opposition forces, including the National Unity Platform (NUP), would reject such a system.

International Response

Bobi Wine has called on the international community to intervene, urging global leaders to apply pressure on Museveni’s regime to prevent any further erosion of democratic practices. “This is the time for the world to stand with the people of Uganda,” he said. “We cannot allow democracy to be dismantled by a dictator who refuses to leave power.”

The opposition leader concluded by calling for nationwide protests and peaceful resistance, stating that the people of Uganda must be prepared to fight for their right to vote and their future.

As Uganda braces for what could be a pivotal moment in its political history, the battle between Museveni’s regime and the forces of democracy led by Bobi Wine is far from over.
