Presidential Candidate Robert Kyagulanyi alias Bobi Wine was this morning arrested by a dozen police officers shortly after he was nominated.
Bobi wine was abruptly netted outside the gate of the Kyambogo presidential nomination center by a team of heavily armed security officers who demanded he gets out of his ride and follows them to a police van parked right in front.
A defiant Bobi wine who was in his car with his wife Barbie Kyagulanyi refused to exit the car and instead put up the windscreens.
Shortly after Barbie Kyagulanyi exited the vehicle into another car packed aside but Bobi refused to open the door to his side.
the Police officers retaliated by hitting the windscreen of his car very hard before opening the car and plucking out the presidential candidate.
It was a hard struggle to get Bobi out of the vehicle as a section of members of his entourage struggled to fight against his arrest in vain.
Bobi was thrown to the ground before finally being picked up and whisked off in the Van to Magere.
At 10:43 am Tuesday, and his wife plus other party officials including Members of Parliament allowed at the presidential nomination venue, Bobi Wine arrived at Kyambogo Cricket grounds amid a cocktail of security.
On streets and roads leading to the nomination grounds, songs of praise for Bobi Wine blared through speakers and were danced to by his supporters, wearing red T-shirts.
