Ugandan opposition leader Robert Kyagulanyi, known as Bobi Wine, has put forward an ambitious blueprint for a post-Museveni transition, as tensions rise less than two weeks before general elections scheduled for January 15.
The 43-year-old Ugandan opposition figure delivered a speech in which he pledged to provide security for his supporters in the National Unity Party (NUP), stop human rights violations, and return to constitutional rule.
Wine denied President Yoweri Museveni's accusations about his election rallies, calling for political, religious and economic unity.
President Yoweri Museveni delivered a New Year's address at the age of 81, in which he devoted a large portion to attacking his main rival.
Museveni, who has ruled Uganda since 1986, accused Bobi Wine's National Unity Party (NUP) of being backed by foreigners, and of transporting supporters to the party, to create what he described as "mobile and disruptive rallies crowds."
