Uganda's Opposition leader, Kizza Besigye, was arrested Monday shortly after he stepped out of his home for the Walk to work protest. Dressed in his trademark Blue cap, a pair of Khaki trousers, a Kitenge loose fitting shirt and black sneakers, Besigye was quickly rounded up by police and bundled up onto a police pickup truck and taken to Kasangati Police station.

This is the second time the leader of the Forum for Democratic Change leader FDC has been arrested.
Last week, Besigye was arrested in Kajjansi about five Kilometres from the capital city when he launched the ‘Walk to Work’ demonstration.
The protest walk to work is in line with the high food and fuel prices in Uganda.
Judith Nabakooba, the police spokesperson, this morning while talking to the press says she can only confirm that Besigye has been arrested but has no other detail.
Sam Njuba Kalega, the former Member of Parliament for Kyadondo North in Kampala, has been denied access to his client Kiiza Besigye, currently under detention at Kasangati police station.
Njuba together with Alice Alaso, the FDC secretary general stormed Kasangati police station this morning demanding to see Besigye.
They also demanded to know why their party president is being detained.
Njuba argued that as Besigye’s lawyer, he has a right to see his client.
Alice Alaso, on the other hand challenged the legality of holding Besigye.
But David Mukiite, the officer in charge of Kasangati police station, told the two FDC officials, that it is still early for them to talk to Besigye.
Meanwhile, hundreds of the FDC supporters have started streaming in into Kasangati police station.
Many say they are not ready to leave the station until Besigye is released.
Security in Kasangati has been stepped up and journalists have also been denied an opportunity to talk to Besigye.
The Walk to work protest was organized by Action for Change, amid rising fuel and food prices to highlight the plight of Ugandans, who have to walk to work due to fuel price hikes.
