Ugandan opposition leader Robert Kyagulanyi said he was “definitely the elected president of Uganda”. Wine, who unsuccessfully ran for the country’s top job in January, accused President Yoweri Museveni of “mass murder” and called on the Ugandan people to “liberate themselves” from a “dictatorship”. Comparing Museveni to ousted dictators Robert Mugabe, Omar al-Bashir and Muammar Gaddafi, Robert Kyagulanyi described Museveni’s decision to welcome temporarily Afghan refugees on Ugandan soil as a move to “clean his image” internationally after the controversial election.
