Ugandan Police moves to preempt planned protest
Some Ugandans say they will march to the country’s Parliament Tuesday to express their displeasure over the government’s handling of corruption. But the police and President Yoweri Museveni have other plans. The police and the military surrounded the headquarters of Bobbi Wine’s National Unity Platform offices on Monday. Assistant Commissioner and police spokesperson Kituma Rusoke tells VOA’s James Butty, the police took preemptive steps to prevent any mobilization.
