Uganda's President Yoweri Museveni will on Thursday drive from his rural home to the capital, Kampala, making various stops in major towns.

Mr Museveni - who was re-elected last week - will make a total of seven stops on his route.

Government Spokesperson Ofwono Opondo detailed the journey in a tweet:

The president's victory lap comes amid calls for the government to lift the house arrest of opposition leader Robert Kyagulanyi, the pop star-turned politician popularly known as Bobi Wine, who has rejected the election results.

The US has called for a probe into allegations of election irregularities by the opposition, which have yet to file a petition.

The opposition's offices were raided by the military and party officials say the material they were gathering for the petition was confiscated. You can follow the details here. : slotxo
