Police and military officers in Uganda have stopped people from going to the main office of the National Unity Platform (NUP). The NUP is a party led by a politician called Bobi Wine, who is against the government.
On Monday, the NUP party said that there are many soldiers at our secretariat in Kamwokya, and we are not allowed to go there.
Bobi Wine said that the police went to the party’s main office and prevented people from going in or out.
The person who used to be a musician and is now a politician said on social media that the security officers are blocking a prayer event that the NUP planned to have at its office in Kampala on Monday.
The prayers were meant for the party’s members who had died, been arrested, or gone missing.
Last week, the police took Bobi Wine to his house when he came back to Uganda from South Africa. They did this to stop him from planning a protest.
They arrested many of Bobi Wine’s supporters because they claimed that they encouraged violence and were planning a procession that was against the law.
Bobi Wine is upset with the security officers because they have blocked something on the same day that Uganda became independent.
“He said that they will shamelessly gather today to celebrate ‘independence’, even though they behave worse than the colonialists. ”
