Museveni Calls Opposition 'Terrorists' After Seventh-Term Win Amidst Criticism

Ugandan President Museveni labels opposition politicians as terrorists following his seventh-term victory, with accusations of violence and attempts to overturn the election results. The election, won by Museveni with 72% of the vote, faced criticism for repression and an internet blackout.

Opposition leader Bobi Wine, who garnered 25% of the vote, is in hiding after escaping a police raid on his home. The situation remains tense in Uganda, with sporadic protests and a heavy security presence in Kampala.

The African Union and human rights groups have raised concerns about the election process.
