Bobi Wine is one of the most popular singers in his native Uganda, and based many of his songs on breaking the repressive dictatorship of Yoweri Museveni, who changed the Ugandan constitution to maintain the power he has had since 1986. Bobi runs first for parliament and votes for people power within that body, but decides to take it one step further and run against Museveni for President in 2021. His campaign is harassed, arrested, even shot, but Bob and people power will not back down.

“Bobi Wine: The People’s President” is currently streaming on HULU and Disney+. Directed by Moses Bwayo and Christopher Sharp. Rated “PG-13”
