However, speaking during an interview with NBS TV, Bobi Wine noted that he is not bothered by such people, adding that they are making him more popular.

"I'm aware that many people are trying to bring up my history thinking that they will tarnish my image. But this is some positive thing because I have never woken up out of the blue and claimed I'm a minister or the president's son. I came from the ghetto," Bobi Wine said.
