Uganda's Bobi Wine: We have evidence' of election fraud in Museveni win

"I know they are looking for me, but even if they succeed and get me, and do whatever, I want to say this to you fellow Ugandans, he said on video, We reject whatever is being declared by Mr Simon Byabakama [the chair of the Electoral Commission] because those so-called results that they are declaring are fake and they don't in any way reflect what happened at the polling stations."

"Much of Uganda has returned to normal after millions voted in tense presidential and legislative elections marked by violence in some parts of the country and disputed results. President Yoweri Museveni, 81, was declared the winner on Saturday with 72 percent of total votes cast. Former musician Robert Kyagulanyi, popularly known as Bobi Wine, secured 25 percent. Bobi Wine's National Unity Platform (NUP) party and two other presidential candidates have rejected the results,"

"The opposition and its supporters say the government has violently cracked down on dissent, shutting down the internet and arresting protesters. Museveni has accused Bobi Wine's party of trying to destabilise the country. Ugandan authorities said the four-day internet shutdown was a security measure aimed at preventing the spread of misinformation that could cause fear and chaos. The government also said seven people were killed in Butambala, with police stating that protesters attempted to attack a polling station"
