Uganda's President Yoweri Museveni on Wednesday said he would "concede the results" if he lost the January 14, 2021 elections fairly.
"Uganda is not my house. If I lose election I will go to my house and do my own thing if the views of Uganda don't want me to help them with their issues...I go and deal with my personal issues very happily," Mr Museveni told CNN’s Christiane Amanpour.
Museveni further said he deserves a shot at another five-year term partly because his government helped Ugandans survive child hood diseases and the country has stability.
"And we have given them education. We have also given them a base for the economy and we have a good budget and we can support them (youth)," Mr Museveni added.
Ugandans head to the polls Today (January 14th) with 11 candidates eyeing the Presidency.
President Museveni has been in power since 1986.
The 76-year-old is facing a strong challenge from the National Unity Platform ( NUP)Party Robert Kyagulanyi better known as Bobi Wine.
