Uganda Police has revealed silence on the alleged shooting of National Unity Platform (NUP) President Robert Kyagulanyi Ssentamu in Kira Municipality, where he had [reportedly] gone to check on his lawyer George Musisi.
Photos posted online showed Bobi Wine surrounded by followers who yelled that he had been shot in the leg before some supported him into a waiting car. The party said on X that Ugandan security operatives “have made an attempt on the life of” Wine, whose real name is Kyagulanyi Ssentamu.
“He was shot in the leg and seriously injured in Bulindo, Wakiso District,” it said.
It was not immediately clear whether Wine was targeted with a live bullet or a tear gas projectile. Images shared by his close associates showed a bleeding wound below the left knee.
Meanwhile police spokesperson Kituuma Rusoke says the police officers on site claim he stumbled while getting into his vehicle, causing the injury.
