Uganda’s firebrand politician Bobi Wine, was arrested immediately he touched down in Entebbe Airport.
Acccording to Uganda’s National Newspaper Daily Monitor, the self proclaimed Ghetto President was put in an army car and driven away.
Police had earlier reported that they would escort the MP to his home. According to the media centre police said: “On his arrival, the MP will be received at Entebbe International Airport by his immediate family. He will be availed security from the airport to his home.” Police said they would ensure law and order for all road users and maintained that “there shall be no unlawful rallies, processions and assemblies”
It is not yet clear if Wine was being escorted to his home in an army car or for another dose of torture from the dreaded Museveni army.
The incident has led to widespread condemnation of Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni on Social Media..
No words were spared..
Museveni is a scumbag old senile dictator no less that Idi Amin of the modern times. He thinks having seized power from the bush means owing Uganda. He won't live forever..Uganda will outlive him and his caveman ideas eventually

From around the globe..
Museveni and the thugs who surround him really are going to great lengths to make Bobi Wine (@HEBobiwine) the next president of #Uganda. #FreeBobiWine

When a regime becomes scared of its citizens to an extent of deploying snippers as Museveni did today, it is a sign that its no longer welcome. Museveni's is now an occupying force not government #BobiWineReturns

Being a Thursday..TBT..
Museveni must have been that kid who would bring his own ball to play with other kids then when they would score against him he would take away the ball

That Bobi Wine is too rich to fight for the poor!
Let's not forget that he refused to sing for Museveni despite being offered a lot of money. He was rich but conscious enough to know that singing for Museveni was an act of sabotage to the poor man in the ghetto. #BobiWineReturns— Jongo Bravin Asiimwe (@jongobravin) September 20, 2018
Tweeting too?
Museveni taxed social media in Uganda and was conered via VPN. Now the outrageous Museveni has banned folks in Uganda from tweeting about Bobi Wine! He will exit!
