MUSEVENI TO THE WORLD: If I lose, “I will go to my house and do my own things.” Although all credible polls conducted in the run up to Uganda’s much awaited and equally heated presidential polls, put President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni in a firm lead, he has reassured the world that should he be defeated, he will leave peacefully to go and do “his own things.” With less than 24 hours left for the polls to open, Mr. Museveni in this interview adopted from last night’s conversation with CNN’s Christiane Amanpour, an optimistic Museveni says his performance record should guarantee him a clear win, even when the majority of the voters are youthful. A bullish Museveni also downplayed his party’s long stay in power, saying that it is the will of the people.
Buoyed by a recent Afrobarometer poll that puts him a comfortable lead against all his opponents combined, a bullish Museveni (right) told CNN’s Christiane Amanpour (left), that he is confident of victory on account of his solid performance record.
