Kyadondo East MP campaign closing day was not been short of drama. After Bobi Wine was blocked from Kasangato grounds and briefly detained, NRM’s candidate Hon Sitenda Sebalu has this Tuesday afternoon also been arrested by police on unclear circumstances.



“He was arrested together with the district NRM chairperson Hajji Abdu Kiyimba from Wampeewo playground, a second venue for today’s rallies. Police could not tell the motive behind this act but the party continues to seek a clear explanation. The venue was also later invaded by the FDC supporters rendering it impossible for our rally to take place. As an exemplary political party, we have therefore taken a decision to shift our rally to Sir Appolo Kaggwa Church of Uganda in order to avoid causing nasty scenes”, Rogers Mulindwa, NRM’s communications officer stated in a press release.
