There are reports emerging of violent clashes between police and opposition supporters in Uganda following presidential elections yesterday. Local media say several people have been killed. There has been tension as the party of the presidential candidate Bobi Wine says the security forces have surrounded his house as votes are counted. This comes as Uganda's President Yoweri Museveni has taken a commanding lead in Thursday's presidential election - well ahead of his main challenger Bobi Wine, whose party has already questioned the credibility of the results. Figures so far give Museveni 75% of the vote, with Wine on 21%, based on returns from 70% of polling stations. The elections were held amid a countrywide internet shutdown imposed earlier in the week.
