As Ugandans go to the polls next week they are faced with a choice of propelling a leader into his fifth decade in power or backing a candidate seeking to capitalise on the desire for change from some quarters.
President Yoweri Museveni, 81, in office since 1986, is aiming for a seventh successive election victory.
His main challenger, pop-star-turned-politician Bobi Wine, 43, has promised a revolution in governance and sweeping reforms.
Campaigning has been marked by the disruption of opposition activities, including the detention of activists and the breaking-up of rallies by police.
With high rates of youth unemployment in a country where the majority of the population is under 30, the economy has become a key concern in the campaign.
