National Unity Platform (NUP) leader Robert Kyagulanyi (Bobi Wine) has dismissed the recent allegations by President Yoweri Museveni that NUP cheated by a million votes in the last general election.
Addressing reporters at the NUP headquarters on Monday, Kyagulanyi called for an international audit into the election supervised by the United Nations before he dared Museveni to go to court.
“The remarks by Gen. Museveni are utter shameless, especially made while honouring the distinguished man, Gen. Aronda Nyakairima (RIP). My initial response was to forgive him. I am challenging him to subject himself to an international audit,” Kyagulanyi said.
In the last 2021 general election, Kyagulanyi lost to Museveni, who polled over six million votes (58.38%) against his 3.6 million votes (35%).
Museveni made the remarks at Speke Resort Munyonyo in Kampala in an expo to Defence Forces (CDF) Gen. Aronda Nyakairima.
“I have now got all the evidence that in the last election, NUP cheated by one million votes. I have the facts. NUP can take me to court,” Museveni said.
Kyagulanyi, however, went on to task: “Why is he still keeping Byabakama? (Justice Simon Byabakama, EC chairperson). Why don’t you fire him?”
Kyagulanyi revealed that he has written a letter to Museveni stating 22 charges he has against him.
