Ugandan opposition leader Kizza Besigye has reportedly refused to accept a legal representative appointed for his treason trial, arguing that the lawyer is being imposed on him against his wishes. The development comes amid claims that some of Besigye’s chosen legal representatives have either been arrested or barred from entering the country.

The 70-year-old Besigye, a long-time political rival of President Yoweri Museveni, has been in detention since late 2024 after he was allegedly abducted in Kenya and taken back to Uganda.

Lulu Gaboo spoke to Mike Arereng, Channel Africa’s correspondent in Uganda.
