National Unity Platform leader Robert Kyagulanyi has surfaced in the United States, where he says he has begun a series of international engagements after quietly leaving the country.

Kyagulanyi, widely known as Bobi Wine, revealed on 18 March 2026 that his first meetings took place in Washington, D.C., including discussions on Capitol Hill—the seat of the U.S. Congress.

In a brief message shared on X, he said he had already started engaging key stakeholders, signalling a shift to international advocacy following his departure from Uganda.

Capitol Hill, which hosts both the Senate and the House of Representatives, is a major centre of political decision-making in the United States. It is often visited by global leaders and activists seeking to influence policy or rally international support.

The announcement comes just days after Kyagulanyi said he had gone into exile. He claimed he had spent more than two months in hiding, alleging that security agencies were searching for him.

According to him, he managed to evade arrest with the help of ordinary citizens who concealed his whereabouts.
