“Police officers have shot at Bobi Wine’s car,flattening the front tyre as he approached Rwampara for campaigns. Two NUP members have also been injured. Bobi’s campaign roadmap covers Rwampara, Ntungamo and Isingiro today” (91.2 Crooze FM, 18.12.2020).
Again, the Police Force using dangerous means to stop Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine in the mist of campaign. It is a reason why his wearing a bulletproof vest and helmet. The man need to be safe and secured, because the Police Officers are clearly not keep him safe.
“On our way to Rwampara, the same team of masked men in black police uniforms who have been trailing us on all our campaigns, cut us off the road in a remote area, shot at our car flattening the front tyres, an officer using his bayonet injured 2 of our comrades” – Bobi Wine (Kampala Dispatch, 18.12.2020).
We are seeing that Police Force have no regards for the opposition or their campaigns. They are ordered to block and violently stop the National Unity Platform (NUP) Presidential Candidate. This is seemingly so. Since the RDCs and DPCs are all finding their measures and ways to make it hard for Bobi Wine to campaign. They are using all tactics means to make it hard for him and his team.
This have been a steady act of the authorities. They have been relentlessly on the case of Bobi Wine. Ensuring that he cannot access districts, hotels and not even use the main roads. There are so many cases of injustice and impunity in the middle of the campaign. Not only the unjustified arrest and fatal days of riots to get him freed. No, that is only one piece of a systemic acts of disenfranchised candidate who has the “world” or the state directly against him.
Bobi Wine is an enemy of the state. To say otherwise at this point is naive. His car has been shot at before, used tear-gas against and roads blocked to any sort of venue or hotel even. There are nothing he can do without questioned or have law enforcement on his tail. This man is more monitored than terrorists or common criminals. It is like Bobi Wine is a serial offender and serial killer who is traversing the Republic. With all of that his still persisted and continued to campaign.
So, that Bobi Wine car shot again isn’t surprising. This is sadly the state of affairs and what they do to him. We are lucky it’s the wheels and towards that part of the car. Even though that is dangerous and we cannot know wheels would react after the shots. The cylinders and mechanics could have been damaged. The shooter could even hit the engine and put the car into fire.
We are lucky that it was the tires. It could have even hit the front windows and been dangerous for the driver and other people in the vehicle. That says it all and how far the government are willing to go after their enemy.
If Bobi Wine wasn’t an enemy. Why are you using live bullets towards his car and towards his team?
That is the signal of this and the message I am getting from this. This is why things are directed towards him and with such fierce force. Peace.
