Maybe they'll get a UK correspondent for Lindell TV.
Yes, I talked to Yusra El-Bagir, who's the Sky News Africa correspondent.
Yusra's been on before.
She just covered the Ugandan elections, Tommy.
And we've had Bobby Wine on, both you and I have talked to him.
Basically, we had another not exactly or not even close to free and fair election.
The internet was shut down.
Uster describes kind of war zone-like conditions on the ground, military out threatening people, the tallies being โ
seemingly manipulated.
Yusra was there for it also.
She kind of walks through what it was like to be there for that election, what it says about the direction of politics in Africa, like the rest of the world, where the strong men are kind of just not giving an inch and it seems to be working for them.
How do younger Ugandans, including the 70% of the country that's under 30, feel about it?
What's next for Bobby Wine?
And again, what does this mean for the broader African landscape?
So very important to cover a story like that that can get drowned in Greenland.
So you should check it out.
And the kind of Don Jr., Museveni, the president's kid, is like online tweeting, like threatening to kill him.
I mean, it's pretty dark, but it's important.
She's very good.
She has an eye.
