Already in Amsterdam, Bobi Wine has warned the Uganda Police not to superimpose their plans on him when he gets to Entebbe Airport saying that he already has other plans of his own. 

Earlier today, the Uganda Police told the media that Bobi Wine will only be received at the airport by his family and the police who will escort him to his home.

But Bobi Wine is having none of this. In a Facebook post, the Kyadondo East MP lashed out at the police for what he calls impunity. 

“I just saw the Uganda Police spokesman Emilian Kayima and other senior police officers announcing that they will only allow my immediate family members to receive me from Entebbe Airport. Why do these police officers allow themselves to descend so low? They now want to decide who picks me and where I go upon arrival?

Well, for your information, no single family member will receive me at the airport, I will find them home coz I know where home is. I will be received by friends, colleague leaders, and artistes. I will then go and see my sickly grandmother briefly at Najjanankumbi from where I will head to Kamwokya for lunch with my family (brothers and sisters) before I go to my home in Magere.

The legislator added that he is a free Ugandan with a right to move in where in the country without seeking the permission of police first.

“The police has no business telling me who receives me and who cannot or where I go and where I cannot. This impunity must stop!”

Bobi Wine is scheduled to land at Entebbe International Airport at 10 am aboard a KLM flight from the US where he has been receiving treatment.

The police says that no processions from the airport will be allowed to go on as neither Bobi Wine nor his family has sought permission from the force as required by the Public Order Management Act.
