Kyadondo East Member of Parliament Robert Kyagulanyi Sentamu alias Bobi Wine is set to resume his nationwide consultations for the presidential bid on February 24th 2020.

 

In a press conference at People Power new headquarters in Kamwokya nakwa division on Thursday Kyagulanyi told the media that he is ready to unseat the incumbent President, Yoweri Museveni in the 2021 presidential elections.

 

According to the schedule, Kyagulanyi will resume consultations at Pope Paul VI Memorial Hotel on Monday next week starting at 9:00am.

 

However, there is no official response from the Uganda Police Force about the proposed consultations, despite the official communication as required by law written and received by the office of the Inspector General of Police (IGP) on 14th month.

 

However, the group’s spokesperson Joel Ssenyonyi says the Police through its mouth piece Fred Enanga has used the media to inform them that they haven’t fulfilled all the requirement which has forced them to engage their lawyers, Medard Ssegonna Lubega and Lukwago & Co. Advocates to write another letter over the matter in the interest to avoid the previous misunderstanding with Police in respect to the resolutions taken after a meeting with the Electoral Commission.

 

It is not yet clear whether Kyagulanyi will be allowed to hold the consultations and Police say they expect not only Kyagulanyi, but all the other intending presidential candidates to present to police, clearance of the venues they intend to use for their consultations, the number of people they expect and other arrangements, which Enanga says, Kyagulanyi hasn’t fulfilled.
