News broke last evening that the government wants to amend the constitution where only Members of Parliament will vote for President.
Former Presidential candidate and National Unity Platform (NUP) leader Bobi Wine real name Robert Kyagulanyi has reacted to the move saying it’s another scheme by the government to deny the people of Uganda a chance to vote for their desired President.
“The people of Uganda must not underestimate the new scheme (MPs to elect President)- this is how all the past schemes started, including removing term limits and age limit from the Constitution,” said Bobi Wine.
Bobi Wine claimed that the move is a sign that Museveni lost in the last general elections.
“Museveni having been roundly defeated in the last election, now wants to take away the right of the people of Uganda to elect their President.
Of course, he plans to do this in order to impose his drunk son on us, well knowing that he can’t even get 5% of a popular vote,” he said.
He has urged Ugandans to come together and be able to stop the amendment move.
“Each one of us has an equal stake in this country. When we can, we shall, but don’t wait for us to tell you what to do. Think about what we can individually and collectively do to put an end to this madness,” he said.
