Kizza Besigye – Uganda
The leader of Uganda’s main opposition party, Kizza Besigye, lost to President Yoweri Museveni for the fourth consecutive time in the February 2016 elections. He, however, opposed the outcome of the elections, claiming that the process was compromised and not fair. The former 60-year-old medical doctor subsequently swore himself in as President of Uganda in Kampala.
“I Kizza Besigye swear in the name of God…” he said, declaring himself as People’s President and a rightful leader later in 2016. This happened a day before Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni’swearing-inin ceremony. Besigye was, however, arrested after his “swearing-in ceremony”. He was detained before being hauled before court on treason charges. He is still battling the charges even though he is out on bond.
