Besigye clarifies on wrong stories written about him in Kamunye

“I usually don’t want to comment about the wrong stories written about myself (Col. Kiiza Besigye). But the one in last week’s Kamunye went over board,” Col. Kiiza Besigye has said.

He says that he had wanted to ignore it. His friends and political advisers called him yesterday evening asking him to tell them the truth if he collapsed last week while in Kasese as it was indicated in Kamunye newspaper.

Besigye says that even his FDC party officials have been asking the same. He can not count his supporters and fans. Col. Besigye says that he moved with his aide Harold Kaija as usual in his car from Kampala to Kasese, and they stayed in the same hotel, slept in opposite room, they would part after Mid Night dinner, they were moving together in the field. So if there was anything that happened to him, Kaija would be the first one to KNOW.

Besigye says that he did not have anything like flue. This was a story that he does not know the intentions of the author. The story in Kamunye had alleged that Besigye collapsed while in Kasese.
