Bobi Wine thrills ‘New Yokers’ with touching address
On April 28, Uganda’s opposition figure and musician turned politician, @HEBobiwine, addressed the diaspora community in New York about what he calls the dictatorship of President @KagutaMuseveni.
Speaking at a church in Brooklyn where Nelson Mandela spoke about the need for democracy and freedom in South Africa, Kyagulanyi urged everyone in the diaspora to stand up against oppression and tyranny in Uganda.
He also criticized the recent brutality on MPs, activists, and opposition politicians, including his brother and @NUP_Ug leader Fred Nyanzi, citing that these are tactics to muzzle dissent and discourage political opposition, calling on the international community not to ignore Uganda’s abuses and support the people’s struggle for democracy and a just society.
His speech was met with cheers and applause from the crowd, many of whom expressed their solidarity with the people of Uganda in their quest for freedom and justice and his vision of a better Uganda.
