Former FDC president and presidential candidate Dr Kizza Besigye has accused Museveni’s government of an attempt to kill Kyadondo East Member of Parliament Robert Kyagulanyi (better known as Bobi Wine) in the aftermath of the August 2018 Arua by-election chaos.
Besigye said that the government’s plan which he says failed was to kill the singer turned politician and then blame it on the opposition, particularly himself.
Besigye claimed that the shooting of Bobi Wine’s driver Yasin Kawuma in Arua was actually an attempted assassination on the Kyadondo East MP.
Addressing the press at his offices at Katonga Road in Kampala, Besigye said he obtained the intelligence from credible sources.
“The Killing of Kawuma was part of a government plot to convince the public that members of the opposition were at loggerheads and kill those they fear threaten their own popularity,” Besigye claims.
