UGANDA: VIOLENT OPPOSITION PROTESTS UNLIKELY TO DERAIL INCUMBENT’S RE-ELECTION BID

   Mon, 23 November 2020

The run-up to the January 2021 election is already more deadly than the previous one five years ago. Despite his vocal support base among urban youths, opposition challenger Bobi Wine will struggle to attract the all-important rural vote, while his campaign faces a concerted challenge from security agencies. Meanwhile, long-time incumbent President Museveni is counting on the nascent oil economy to secure his re-election bid and stimulate economic recovery next year.
