Kenyan opposition leader calls for release of Uganda’s opposition chief - November 21, 2024
Update: 2024-11-21
Description
The Convenor of the Pan African Opposition Leaders Solidarity Network has called for the immediate and unconditional release of Ugandan opposition leader Dr. Kizza Besigye. Besigye’s wife told VOA Tuesday that her husband was kidnapped in Kenya, brought back to Uganda and held in a military jail. Besigye had been scheduled to attend and speak at Kenyan opposition leader Martha Karua’s book launch on Sunday, but he was a no-show. Kenya’s Principal Secretary for Foreign Affairs, Korir Sing’oei, said Wednesday that Kenya has no knowledge about Besigye’s alleged abduction. Karua, leader of the National Rainbow Coalition – a Kenyan opposition party --- and Convenor of the Pan African Opposition Leaders Solidarity Network, tells VOA’s James Butty, Dr. Besigye must be released unconditionally because kidnapping and abduction by state security violate local and international law.
