According to a source privy to the meeting, Besigye and group congratulated Bobi Wine and welcomed him from prison. They also discussed a number of issues ranging from politics to governance.
The group also carried Bobi Wine food stuffs allegedly to help him nourish from the harsh conditions in jail. Among things carried include; Matooke, chicken and refreshments.
The meeting comes against the backdrop of counter arguments by the two sides, with Bobi Wine’s camp claiming Dr Besigye has overstayed his welcome to lead the opposition and now should make way for the galvanised Bobi.
Meanwhile this is second visit by Dr Besigye to Bobi Wine, the other coming at Lubaga hospital when the latter was admitted following the Arua debacle.
Before coming to the limelight, Bobi was the occasional visitor to Dr Besigye, making the FDC leader’s Kasangati home more than twice and another while he was incarcerated in Luzira.
