Focus on Africa

Available for over a year

Kizza Besigye faces treason charges having declared himself president in a mock ceremony. He insists that Uganda's presidential elections in February were rigged and that he, not President Yoweri Museveni, is the true winner of the poll. Dr Besigye has been repeatedly arrested and jailed in recent months, and is currently out on bail. (Photo: Kizza Besigye speaks to the Âé¶¹Éç's Akwasi Sarpong in London. Credit: Âé¶¹Éç Africa.)
