Bobi Wine has captured the attention of the world by standing up to Uganda’s dictator President Yoweri Museveni.
He was arrested in August at a political rally in Arua and detained in military court where he was tortured by Museveni’s soldiers. His arrest caused an uproar on social media and in the streets of Kampala with chants of #FreeBobiWine bringing the Ugandan capital to a stand still.
In an interview on Citizen Television on Wednesday night, he said he believes the Ugandan president’s mind has been corrupted by those who surround him since they shower him with empty praise.
According to Mr Kyagulanyi, institutions and leadership in his country are failing because the people who surround Mr Museveni are his relatives and tribesmen.
“It has been said before that power corrupts, absolutely, I believe he is drunk with power. He has been convinced by those who surround him that he is a god of sorts,” said Mr Kyagulanyi.
The Ugandan popstar musician, will be hosted by Power 254 courtesy of activist Boniface Mwangi at Ufungamano house on Friday at 5pm.
He will wind up his Kenyan visit in Kibera on Sunday. According to Mwangi, Ghetto will join the likes Octopizo and Juliani for a free Ghetto concert in the slum area.
