‘‘I managed to elude the police. I did that to prove to them ‘osobola’, that we can,’‘ Wine told journalists in a press conference held at his house on Wednesday evening.

‘‘Dictators are not massaged out of power. Dictators are resisted. We are not going to resist the Museveni dictatorship, and at the end of this all, Museveni will fall.’‘

I think Bobi Wine today out did Will Smith and his Independence Day (1996) movie. Because, that flick of him jumping on a boda-boda will be legendary. More, than Smith knocking an alien out in a sci-fi movie. I'm just sneezing. Nothing to see here. #BobiWine #UgandaAt57 pic.twitter.com/LFJtqYYHA6

Bobi Wine managed to jump onto a speeding motorcycle and you think he won't be able to jump onto Museveni's seat the same way?

Bobi Wine defies police

Uganda’s opposition lawmaker, who is also a poplar musician, Bobi Wine, defied the police on Wednesday, when he insisted on staging a concert at his beach property on the outskirts of the capital, Kampala.

Police on Tuesday said it would not be able to secure the concert, and consequently advised Bobi Wine and his fans not to hold it.

The independence-themed concert is the latest to be blocked by the police since Bobi Wine started actively opposing president Museveni’s government.

‘‘Since 11:00pm, police & military surrounded my home & my private property, One Love Beach Busabala, in yet another move to place me under house arrest & block our Independence Day music concert,’‘ Wine tweeted on Tuesday night.

‘‘156th concert so far! For singing truth to power, I can’t perform in my own country.’‘ > Gen. Museveni, so afraid of a critical microphone is doing everything to silence it. He recently registered himself as a musician in another desperate attempt to counter us. Has been attending concerts of his praise singers. All we say, let there be fairness!
