Pop singer and Ugandan opposition leader Bobi Wine has been charged to court by the government for spreading coronavirus.
According to various right groups in the country,, the charge is a sham levelled against the singer to prevent him from contesting at the elections. Human Rights Watch says it is clear that the Ugandan authorities were using COVID-19 guidelines to repress opposition and that the governing party had held large events ahead of the election on January 14, 2021.
