In Wakiso—-
Kyadondo East MP, Robert Kyagulanyi (aka Bobi Wine) has been driven to his home in Magere after being briefly detained at Kasangati police post.
Bobi Wine was driven to the post from Entebbe airport in a white police Land cruiser GX vehicle registration number, UP7500.
Bobi Wine touched down at Entebbe at 12.45 PM aboard Kenyan Airways and whisked to the car before he could go through immigration. The car sped off through the UN base and took the Kampala- Entebbe Express highway.
Earlier dispersed hundreds of people who had gathered at the MP’s home to welcome. The people had erected arches and pasted his posters along the road that leads to his home.
Government has hailed Kyadondo East Member of Parliament Robert Kyagulanyi (Bobi Wine) for cooperating with security forces who delivered him from Entebbe Airport to his residence in Magere – Kasangti.
Bobi Wine arrived Thursday afternoon from the United States where he had been for about three weeks for treatment.
Government Spokesman Ofwono Aopndo said about an hour and half after the MP’s arrival, that he had been “safely” delivered to his Magere home.

“From Entebbe Airport Police has delivered Kyagulanyi safely in his home at Magere, Wakiso District,” Opondo said.
This was around the same time, however, it was alleged that the MP had been detained at Kasangati Police Station.
Meanwhile Opondo went on to praise the MP for cooperating with security services.
“We want to than (thank) Hon. Robert Kyagulanyi (Bobo Wine) for easily cooperating with law enforcement officers at Entebbe airport who provided him with a chauffeur driven car, escorts and traffic clearance to Magere,” Opondo said.
Opondo added that Bobi Wine “did not attempt to resist police request to escort him home.”
Bobi Wine had earlier yesterday protested the arrangement of being driven by police to his house.
He said from the airport he needed to first meet his grandmother who lives in Najjanankumbi, before heading to his home.

In Kampala—-
The Kyadondo East MP Robert Kyagulanyi Sentamu alias Bobi Wine has been spotted at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport after touching down from Amsterdam, Netherlands.
As military and Police deployment at Entebbe Airport and some areas around the Kampala Metropolitan Area intensify, the controversial legislator is set to proceed to Entebbe.
There is still heavy deployment of security personnel from both Police and UPDF along Entebbe road as well as at the airport ahead of the return of Kyadondo East MP Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine.
There is tight security check at the airport and people who are not intending to travel have been denied access into the airport.
Journalists too have been asked for accreditation from Civil Aviation Authority and those without it have been chased away from the airport checkpoint.
Bobi Wine who has been in America for close to three weeks seeking specialized treatment following his alleged torture, is expected to touch the ground at Entebbe International Airport at 12:45pm.
Journalists from different media houses who were still travelling from Kampala to the Entebbe Airport have been arrested and detained at Kisubi Police station.
A military helicopter has been deployed to patrol Entebbe and its outskirts.
Police had earlier in the day banned any processions for the MP’s homecoming and said they would pick him from the airport, offer security and deliver him directly to his home in Magere, Wakiso District.
In a written statement read by police spokesperson Emilian Kayima, the Force said they would only allow the MP’s immediate family to receive him on arrival and that no one has notified the Force for a crowd event as required under the Public Order Management Act.
“He will be availed security from the airport to his home. Police will further ensure law and order [for] all road users. There shall be no unlawful rallies, processions and assemblies,” Mr Kayima said.
However, shortly after the police pronouncement, Kyagulanyi, who was at the time at Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, tweeted and posted on his Facebook page messages denouncing the directive.
“I am wondering why these police officers allow themselves to descend so low. They now want to decide who picks me and where I go upon arrival! Well, for your information, no single family member will receive me at the airport; this impunity must stop now,” he wrote.
The MP’s lawyers Nicholas Opiyo, Asuman Basalirwa and Andrew Karamagi, at a separate press conference in the city’s upscale Kololo neighbourhood, announced that they would instead be at the airport in person to receive him because he is still a “suspect”.
Kyagulanyi’s supporters and relatives also said their parallel arrangements will go on as planned.
“We shall receive Bobi Wine at home [in Kamwokya, a Kampala suburb] and have a family meal together, pray and sing for him before we take him back to his home in Magere,” Fred Nyanzi, the lawmaker’s elder brother, said.
Under the original plan, the legislator, would upon arrival, be chauffeured to Najjanankumbi, on the Entebbe highway, to check on his ailing grandmother and head to Kamwokya for prayers and blessings before deciding whether to report to Parliament or head home.

He fainted immediately after the district returning officer Ms Deborah Asiimwe declared the closing of nominations.
After like 30 – 40 minutes, Brian told Mk News link reporter that his failure to be nominated was behind some of government officials in the district whom he said that they bribed his lawyer not to sign on his documents.

SPORTS NEWS:
Manchester City made an awful start to their Champions League campaign as they suffered a shock defeat at home to Lyon in Group F
Manchester City 1-2 Lyon
Maxwel Cornet and Nabil Fekir netted in the first half for Lyon. Bernardo Silva pulled one back with 23 minutes to go but City were beaten.
Manchester City paid the price for an error-strewn first-half display as they were beaten 2-1 at home by Lyon in their Champions League opener.
The Premier League champions lacked intensity and fell behind when Maxwel Cornet finished in the 26th minute.
Nabil Fekir, who came close to joining Liverpool in the summer, made it 2-0 when he seized on a defensive mistake and fired in from 20 yards before half-time.
City dominated possession in the second half but only managed to pull one goal back in the 67th minute through Bernardo Silva.
Pep Guardiola, who was watching from the stands due to a touchline ban, cut a frustrated figure as his side laboured, particularly in the first half.
They did go close as Fernandinho blazed over from the penalty spot and Aymeric Laporte headed against the post, but too many passes went astray and the defence looked susceptible to Lyon’s pace on the counter.
It was a City mistake that led to the opener as the ball was given away in midfield, Fekir broke down the left and Cornet finished well after Delph made a mess of his attempted clearance.
Wednesday Results:
Group E
Ajax 3-0 AEK Athens
After Nicolás Tagliafico turned in David Neres’s pass moments after half-time, Ajax continued to push and substitute Donny van de Beek made it two from Dušan Tadić’s centre. Tagliafico’s cross floated in near the end for the third.
Benfica 0-2 Bayern München
Robert Lewandowski shot Bayern ahead in the tenth minute and early in the second half Benfica youth product Renato Sanches, given a start against his old side, made it two after starting and finishing a fine move.

Group F
Shakhtar Donetsk 2-2 Hoffenheim
Shakhtar twice came from behind to ensure the points were shared with the group-stage debutants. Florian Grillitsch chipped in early for Hoffenheim and although Ismaily equalised with a fine solo effort, Håvard Nordtveit headed the visitors into a half-time lead. The second equaliser came late when sub Maycon struck from distance.

Group G
Viktoria Plzeň 2-2 CSKA Moskva
The Czech champions looked set for a winning start thanks to two first-half goals from Michael Krmenčík, the second a brilliant flicked finish from an equally fine cross by David Limberský. However, Fedor Chalov pulled one back early and then, deep in added time, Nikola Vlašić converted a penalty after Jan Kovařík fouled Mário Fernandes.
Real Madrid 3-0 Roma
Madrid’s bid for a fourth straight title, but first of the post-Zidane and Ronaldo era, began with victory. Isco curled in a free-kick just before half-time, and close to the hour Gareth Bale ran onto a superb Luka Modrić ball and made no mistake. Near the end, sub Mariano Díaz – Ronaldo’s successor as Madrid No7 – produced an excellent finish for the third.

Group H
Valencia 0-2 Juventus
Cristiano Ronaldo’s European debut for Juve was ended by a 29th-minute red card, his first in the UEFA Champions League, but Miralem Pjanić converted penalties either side of half-time to ensure victory.

Young Boys 0-3 Manchester United
Paul Pogba came to the fore in Berne as he scored twice in the last ten minutes of the first half, the second a penalty, before setting up Anthony Martial for the third.
