Uganda’s main opposition leader Bobi Wine, who has emerged as the most formidable opponent of veteran President Yoweri Museveni, was shot in the leg by security agents in a northern suburb of the capital Kampala on Tuesday, his party said.

Wine, a pop star turned politician whose real name is Robert Kyagulanyi, finished runner-up in the 2021 presidential election behind Museveni, who has ruled the East African country for nearly four decades.

“Security operatives have made an attempt on the life of President @HEBobiwine. He was shot in the leg and seriously injured,” Wine’s party, the National Unity Platform, said in a post on the X platform.

NTV, a local independent broadcaster, reported he was injured in a scuffle after police fired tear gas to disperse his supporters.
