NUP leader Robert Kyagulanyi says President Yoweri Museveni will face courts of law, and could be imprisoned upon conviction just like former Burkina Faso president President Blaise Compaoré.
A Burkinabe court recently sentenced Compaoré to life in prison for his role in the 1987 murder of President Thomas Sankara.
Now, Bobi Wine says President Museveni should also be tried for the thousands of Ugandans killed during his regime.
The singer-turned-politician wants Museveni to answer for the death of former minister Andrew Lutakome Kayiira.
A former leader of the Uganda Freedom Movement, a guerrilla organization that fought the governments of Milton Obote and Tito Okello between 1980 and 1986, Kayiira was murdered in March 1987.
Kayiira was murdered a year after President Museveni’s NRA captured power.
He was killed at the home of Henry Gombya, a BBC journalist.
Bobi Wine now says Museveni should be tried for the murder of Kayiira and other killings that have happened in the country since 1986.
He believes the 77-year-old long-serving leader will one day be in the dock to answer for his role in the murders — and hopes Gen Museveni will suffer a fate similar to Compaoré’s.
“The arch of the universe is long but it bends towards JUSTICE. One day, Museveni will be in the dock to answer for the murder of revolutionary leader Dr Andrew Lutakome Kayiira and hundreds of thousands of Ugandans. It’s just a matter of time,” said Bobi Wine after news of Compaoré’s sentence broke.
