Video Description
Uganda’s presidential election is unfolding in real time, and early results are already triggering national and international controversy. According to preliminary figures released by the Electoral Commission, President Yoweri Museveni is leading with over 61 percent, while opposition leader Bobi Wine trails with about 33 percent — numbers that have raised serious questions among Ugandans and global observers.

This election comes after a stunning public claim by a presidential advisor that Museveni’s victory was guaranteed and that power would eventually pass to his son, Muhoozi Kainerugaba. On voting day, Uganda experienced a nationwide internet shutdown, malfunctioning voting machines, delayed polling in opposition strongholds, and reports of voters unable to cast their ballots.

Bobi Wine and the National Unity Platform have accused authorities of suppressing turnout in strategic local government areas, while critics question why the internet was shut down if the process was truly free and fair. As counting continues, tensions are rising, and the legitimacy of the election is already being fiercely debated.

Watch this full analysis as we break down the early results, the internet blackout, technical failures, security deployment, and what this election means for Uganda’s democratic future.
