“Bobi my love, our 7th wedding anniversary finds you in physical pain” Bobi Wine’s wife pens heart-wrenching letter hours before he’s freed

Kyaddondo East MP Robert Kyagulanyi alias Bobi Wine and 12 others who are facing treason charges were on Monday granted bail by a court in Northern Uganda.

Ambulances were on standby outside the courthouse to transport Bobi Wine and others to hospital. The detainees were tortured by Museveni’s soldiers and could barely walk on their own.

7th wedding anniversary

Bobi Wine and his wife Barbie Kyagulanyi were celebrating their 7th wedding anniversary the same Monday that he appeared before a court in Gulu.

Barbie took to social media to pen a heart-wrenching letter to her husband hours before he was granted bail by Gulu High Court.

Bobi my love, today is our seventh wedding anniversary. Unlike the other anniversaries in the past, this one finds us in a court room in Gulu. It finds you in clutches, unable to walk by yourself. It finds you before a judge, making an application for you to be released on bail so that you can go for medical treatment. It finds you in physical pain. On such days in the past, we would go to the beach or somewhere across the Atlantic. We would cut cake, have some wine and celebrate with our children. But today here we are. Still not sure if you’ll get your freedom or if you will be taken back to prison.

But let me tell you this. I have never been so proud of you. I am very proud that you are not before this judge because you did anything wrong. Not because you stole public funds or killed a person. You are before the judge because of standing for what you believe in. You have always told me that your dream is to live in a country which works for all citizens. Everyday, you are working towards that. Our troubles these past days are a result of that effort. What I can do is once again promise to support you every step of the way. Not because Iam your wife but also your best friend.
On our wedding day on 27th August 2011, you composed for me the best song I’ve ever listened to ‘For better for worse.’ You promised to be with me through thin and thick, in sickness and in health, in sorrows and joy. I promised you the same. Here we are on that worse bit of the oath. 
Happy wedding anniversary my Love; FOR BETTER,FOR WORSE. IN SICKNESS AND IN HEALTH.
