The National Unity Platform (NUP) party has accused Uganda Police of shooting dead five of their supporters who were following the party presidential candidate Robert Kyagulanyi Ssentamu alias Bobi Wine in Nakifuma during a campaign trail on Monday morning.
NUP claims that police fired live bullets leaving five of their supporters dead just after their campaign meeting.
“Just after our campaign meeting in Nakifuma earlier this morning, police has fired live bullets to our supporters leaving five of them dead. Many have succumbed to serious injuries when police trucks drove and knocked them down,” NUP tweeted.
Bobi Wine is today holding campaigns in Mukono, Buikwe and Lugazi.
