Former four-time presidential candidate Col (Rtd) Dr Kizza Besigye has asked National Unity Platform (NUP) leader Robert Kyagulanyi alias Bobi Wine to make a public statement to cease fire on the new People’s Front for Transformation (PFT).
Dr Besigye told journalists at their first address to the media yesterday that he called Kyagulanyi and he said he regrets the on-going attacks on this front but some people have been asking why the NUP leader has not done that publicly.
This is not the first time such an outburst is happening between Dr Besigye and Bobi Wine’s entities.
One morning in March 2019, a group of “ghetto youth” donned in People Power T-shirts Dr Besigye as he exited a radio station in Mengo, in the city centre.
Dr Besigye yesterday pointed out that he was aware that there is a habit by the state to create fights on social media to derail the main aim of struggling to oust President Museveni.
When contacted, Joel Ssenyonyi, the NUP spokesperson declined to comment about the fights as a way of depriving the fight habit of media attention so that the focus can be turned on the main cause of forging a way of changing power in the country.
Meanwhile, Police through the forces spokesperson Fred Enanga has warned Dr Besigye and company to desist from all activities that aim at destabilizing the country’s peace.
