Bobi Wine's Son Solomon Kampala Apologies to Ugandans After Sending Angry Messages When His Mom Was Assaulted

Solomon Kampala, son of opposition leader Bobi Wine, has issued a public apology following the emotional messages he shared on social media on Friday night, after soldiers raided his mother’s home.

In a statement posted on X, Kampala said his messages, which included strong language directed at Ugandans, were a reaction to the distressing events at his family home. 

“In the heat of that emotionally charged moment, I ended up using very indecent language and addressing you in a disrespectful way, which I deeply regret,” he wrote.

He added that his outburst was fueled by anger and frustration but acknowledged it was wrong. 

“I realize that it was wrong and I apologize for that, and I hope you all will understand that it was short-lived anger and frustration,” Kampala said.

Despite the incident, Kampala took time to thank those who responded to his calls for help during the raid. 

“I also want to appreciate all of you that responded to my distress call last night when my mother was under attack at home,” he stated.

The apology comes amid heightened tensions in Uganda, where opposition figures and their families have faced repeated harassment by security forces. 

Bobi Wine, a prominent opposition leader and former presidential candidate, has frequently criticized the government over such actions, which human rights groups have condemned.

Kampala’s statement reflects an attempt to clarify his position while acknowledging the emotional toll of the events on him and his family, emphasizing gratitude to those who supported them during the incident. More News on Uganda Here.
