On his visit to opposition leader Kiiza Besigye in Kasangati, Bobi Wine begged FDC president, officials and followers to forgive the Tubonga Nawe artistes whose concerts and songs the opposition had decided to boycott. Bobi Wine posted:
“On this International Women’s Day, my wife and I had the honour of visiting our neighbour, the people’s president, Dr. Kizza Besigye.
During our time together, we talked about a wide range of issues. I brought up the issue of the campaign FDC announced yesterday to boycott my fellow artists that supported NRM in the recent election. The leader listened to me as I tried to explain my concern that this could create disharmony among us.
What I wish for us is a united Uganda where people can stand for justice while being tolerant and supporting each other. He agreed with me that, although sacrifices must be made, we must proceed with a peaceful understanding: we may not share political affiliations, but we share a dream for a FREE and DEMOCRATIC Uganda, where everybody is equal under the law; a Uganda that lives up to her full potential.
“Wow, that will take me for a while,” is what he said to me after I had played #Situka for him with my acoustic guitar that King Saha gave to me on my birthday.
