The family of Kyadondo East Member of Parliament Robert Kyagulanyi alias Bobi Wine is in fear and shock after his driver Yasin Kawuma was shot dead in Arua this evening.

In a post on her Facebook Page, Bobi Wine’s wife Barbie Kyagulanyi Itungo said she had no idea where her husband and the team of seven people were, as all their phones were unreachable.

“Friends and Family; it’s a dark night tonight. As you all know, our driver has been shot dead in Arua. It’s a very sad day today,” the post reads in part.

“I have no idea where my husband and a team of about seven of his people are at the moment, we have lost touch. All their phones are not reachable and we are all watching out the window to see or hear the next news coming in,” she added.

Security forces this fired live bullets to disperse opposition supporters who were marching in Arua town.

Some bullets reportedly hit Yasin Kawuma, who was driving Bobi Wine’s car.

It is reported that Bobi Wine and others were arrested at a hotel in Arua after the shooting.
