Bobi Wine whines in public after shut down of his shows

Robert Kyagulanyi Ssentamu popularly known as Bobi Wine has decried the police for stopping him perform.

The member of parliament has vowed to go the streets if the problem with the police will not be resolved.

Last year, Bobi Wine made Africa headlines after he was accused of participating in riots.

He was arrested and tortured until the public protested against the government.

He was later released and taken to the UK for treatment and by the beginning of 2019 he was okay.

Bobi Wine now is fighting for the 2021 slot for the presidency and want to remove the longest serving dictator Yoweri Kaguta Museveni.

Since he took power as an MP, he has not been in good terms with the presidents and close to 130 of his shows have been cancelled since 2017.

We have just received this letter from the Uganda Police Force stopping all our scheduled music shows – including the one scheduled for tomorrow at One Love Beach, Busabala. They have been playing ping-pong games for over a month since we wrote to them. Three days ago, they wrote back to us giving us a litany of requirements. We invested huge sums of money to meet their demands, some of which were unreasonable.

He went ahead to disclose the shows that have been shut down so far with no clear indications of good will.

 We have just received this letter from the Uganda Police Force stopping all our scheduled music shows - including the one scheduled for tomorrow at One Love Beach, Busabala. They have been playing ping-pong games for over a month since we wrote to them. Three days ago, they wrote back to us giving us a litany of requirements. We invested huge sums of money to meet their demands, some of which were unreasonable. This was in addition to what we have invested in advertising and preparing the show. I think they thought we would fail to meet them. When we did and submitted them, the responsible officers started hiding themselves from us! Last night, they intercepted the trucks which were carrying the machines for the show. Today, this is the letter they gave to us- no show. Please remember, all other artistes are not required to fulfill any of these requirements and their shows have not been stopped. This brings the total number of our blocked concerts across the country to 124 since October, 2017. We shall not sit and watch as our rights continue to be violated. WE SHALL RESIST THIS IMPUNITY.
