Bobi Wine asks ICC to investigate Museveni over human rights abuses
Ugandan musician-turned-politician Bobi Wine (centre) stands on a road as his electoral campaign was blocked by Uganda People's Defence Forces in Kalangala on December 30, 2020.
Ugandan opposition leader Bobi Wine said Thursday he would call on the International Criminal Court to probe murder, torture and other abuses in the country, which is bracing for a tense presidential election next week.
The pop star-turned-politician is the main rival to veteran President Yoweri Museveni, 76, in the January 14 election, which will take place after a chaotic and violent campaign during which Wine has been arrested multiple times.
