Ugandan popstar-turned-politician Robert Kyagulanyi discusses his detention and alleged torture
Barely a year after his entry into politics, Robert Kyagulanyi - a pop star-turned-politician who also goes by the stage name Bobi Wine - is being hailed as the new face of Uganda's opposition.
Kyagulanyi has built a large youth following through his criticism of Uganda's long-time leader President Yoweri Museveni - who has been in power for 32 years - both in parliament and through his music.
The 36-year-old's message of freedom and inclusivity, encourages young people to "stand up" and take over the East African country from what he calls the government's failed leadership.
