KAMPALA. The police and UPDF have deployed heavily at Bulange, Mengo as Kyadondo East MP Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine is hosted at Buganda kingdom’s CBS FM. 

Soldiers have a list of people who are said to have attacked former FDC presidential candidate Dr Kizza Besigye as he appeared on the radio last week.

It's however not clear whether the men in uniform were invited by CBS management or have come to prevent a similar incident like what happened to Dr Besigye.

The former FDC president and four time presidential candidate was on Saturday last week attacked as he was coming out Masengere building in Mengo after a talk show on the same FM station.

The youth who were reportedly unhappy that Dr Besigye was hosted on CBS FM rather than someone in the People Power movement, rounded him up chanting "We Want Bobi Not Besigye", before he found away into his vehicle and sped off.

However, Bobi Wine later claimed that this was a malicious ploy aimed at tarnishing his People Power movement’s image, noting that People Power is a non-violent outfit.
