Ugandan Wine escapes house raid during disputed election.

Ugandan opposition leader Bobi Wine claims to have escaped a police and army raid on his house as President Yoweri Museveni, 81, appears poised to win the presidential election. Bobi Wine, a former pop star, stated he is not at home, with family members under house arrest, and accused security forces of trying to locate him. Museveni is expected to secure a victory despite allegations of repression and intimidation during the election campaign, with reports of violence and opposition suppression. Bobi Wine continues to reject the election results, citing irregularities and the detention of party leaders as evidence of electoral misconduct.
