Vocal Ugandan legislator, Robert Kyagulanyi, who is popularly known as Bobi Wine has been airlifted to Kampala from Gulu where he was court-martialed yesterday. The MP was visibly weak and unable to stand when he appeared before the court-martial.
A group of legislators and lawyers have been pushing for his release Bobi Wine was arrested in the aftermath of the deadly clashes that rocked the west Nile town of Arua on the last day of campaigns to elect a member of parliament for the municipality. His driver was also shot dead on Monday night.
