Uganda Police Detain Bobi Wine Ally as Post-Election Tensions Escalate

Ugandan police have detained opposition lawmaker Muwanga Kivumbi, a close ally of opposition leader Bobi Wine, over alleged involvement in election-related violence following last week’s polls. Kivumbi, a deputy leader of the National Unity Platform (NUP), faces accusations of organising attacks on a police station and a vote-tallying centre after the party’s electoral loss, claims the NUP strongly denies.

Police say seven people died during the unrest, but Kivumbi disputes the account, insisting that 10 people were killed at his home while awaiting parliamentary results. The Uganda Police Force announced that Kivumbi would be arraigned in court, citing links to political violence.

The arrest comes amid heightened tensions after President Yoweri Museveni secured a seventh term. Museveni accused opposition figures of plotting attacks, while Bobi Wine dismissed the election as fraudulent and alleged a violent crackdown on activists.

KURA Plans Ksh1.6 Billion Upgrade of State House Road in Major Rehabilitation Drive

State House Road is among key routes earmarked for major rehabilitation under a nationwide programme by the Kenya Urban Roads Authority KURA.

According to a tender notice, KURA Director General Silas Kinoti approved the project on December 19, with the upgrade expected to cost Ksh1.6 billion. The road runs from Nairobi’s Central Business District, links with major corridors such as University Way, and leads directly to State House, providing access to government offices and the Presidential residence.

KURA says the rehabilitation will improve traffic flow along one of the city’s most critical administrative routes.

The announcement comes amid broader infrastructure plans, with the authority revealing that an additional 92 roads across the country are scheduled for rehabilitation at a combined cost of Ksh15.6 billion.
