MP Kyagulanyi Ssentamu alias Bobi Wine said that he is concerned about his safety after what he believes was an attempt on his life last August when his driver was shot in his car after protesters threw stones at the President\u2019s motorcade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He, on Monday made it clear to all his supporters that he will challenge President Museveni come the 2021 General Elections claiming it will be \u201con behalf of the people.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 37-year-old said he is fearful of harm from running for President because, \u201cthere has never been a threat to this regime like the threat we pose to it today as a generation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Speaking to The Associated Press, Bobi Wine clearly stated that he lives in fear for his life each day not certain if he will see the light of the next. However, authorities have denied that Bobi Wine is being targeted by anyone let alone the State.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI live every day as it comes, not being sure of the next day,\u201d Wine said in an interview with The Associated Press. \u201cI am not blind to the fact that the regime wants me dead and wants me dead as soon as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wine first came to national prominence in 2017 when, as an independent candidate, he won election as a lawmaker representing a constituency near Kampala. He has since successfully campaigned for other opposition candidates, raising his profile as a leader and attracting encouragement to run for president.
