                <media:description>KAMPALA, UGANDA - JANUARY 15: Bobi Wine arrives with his wife, Barbie Itungo Kyagulanyi, at a polling station at Freedom Square Police Station as supporters cheer during Uganda&apos;s general elections on January 15, 2026 in Magere village, Wakiso District, Kampala, Uganda. Incumbent President Yoweri Museveni will seek a seventh consecutive term in office as the presidential nominee for the National Resistance Movement (NRM). The 81-year-old has ruled the country for nearly 40 years since ousting the former military regime during an armed uprising in 1986. He will face-off against seven presidential candidates, including rival Bobi Wine, a 43-year-old singer turned politician. (Photo by Michel Lunanga/Getty Images)</media:description>
