Kampala, Uganda | THE INDEPENDENT | National Unity Party President Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine has written a protest note to NBS TV, making several allegations. NBS is yet to respond to the accusations, but social media was full of reactions, including from the President’s secretary Don Wanyama.
Kyagulanyi is set to protest results of the January 14 Presidential elections in the Supreme Court on Monday.
In the elections, Yoweri Museveni was declared winner with close to 59% of the vote cast against his closest rival, Kyagulanyi, who polled 35% of the vote.

At the height of the most fraudulent election in our nation’s history, after the regime locked out credible election…
Ndugu @KKariisa must be shivering in his kanzu as he reads this. He’s been read the riot act! @HEBobiwine didn’t get majority votes, he should stop nitpicking.
But the arrogance, the entitlement, the bullying! Jeez. What would happen if he had some real power? pic.twitter.com/3b2yJMo6yK
At the height of the most fraudulent election in our nation’s history, after the regime locked out credible election observers and cut off the internet; after the regime came out and said that NO ONE except the Electoral Commission had the authority to release election results, NBS was at hand to assist the dictatorship in committing the most vile crime against the people of Uganda.
NBS claimed to have established its own Tally Center (which other media houses were not allowed to do), and by 11:00pm, they were saying that Museveni had 63% from several districts. Most citizens wondered where these results were coming from. To complete their well calibrated plan, they lined up some so-called analysts to justify the results.
It was clear the intention was to create the impression that Museveni was leading so as to dampen the spirits of the citizens who had roundly rejected the dictatorship. Shame upon whoever was part of the plot to subvert the will of the people. Ugandans are certainly watching.
This week, I wrote a protest letter to them to express my disappointment, which very many Ugandans have expressed.
@HEBobiwine didn’t get majority votes, he should stop nitpicking.
