Ugandan security forces appear to assault and strangle a journalist covering Bobi Wine’s campaign. Standing with Ivan Mbadi and all journalists reporting professionally despite these conditions

For emphasis 📌📌

URGENT: I've learnt from security cicrles of a plot by the desperate regime to have me arrested before polling day in order to create a pre-emptive massacre akin to what they did in November 2020. That way, they will be able to carry out massive arrests and abductions and get justification to deploy the military in every spot. Among other plans, is for that brutal police officer called Bravo to provoke a confrontation in Mbale City or the neighbouring districts so that they get the justification. The other plan is to deploy goons, dress them in our Party colors, and project us as violent. We urge our people to remain peaceful and non-violent BUT VERY ASSERTIVE. #FreeUgandaNow

I had the great honor of serving my country and the people of Uganda as a Justice of the Supreme Court. From March 2021 to the present, I have faced ongoing persecution, retaliation, a coordinated witch-hunt, and even death threats for upholding judicial independence and honoring my judicial oath—particularly in the 2021 #Uganda Presidential Election Petition @HEBobiwine v @KagutaMuseveni Despite serving on the Supreme Court for 13 and a half years with profesionalism and integrity, I have been denied justice for 4 and a half years. Instead of being protected in the exercise of my duties, I have been persecuted for doing the job I was appointed to do on behalf of the people of Uganda: judging and delivering Justice to parties before me without fear or favor. If such injustice can be inflicted on me—openly, with impunity, and in broad daylight—what then is happening to ordinary Ugandans who lack visibility and protection? How many have endured, and continue to endure, similar or even worse treatment at the hands of those who hold power? Anyone who chooses to remain silent is as guilty as the perpetrators. #Uganda #UgandaJustice #UgandaJudiciary #JusticeForUganda #DefendOurConstitution #AfricaJustice #AfricaRuleOfLaw #ProtectOurJudges #JudgesUnderThreat #AfricaDemocracy #JudicialIndependence #RuleOfLaw #AccessToJustice #HumanRights #JusticeMatters #StandForJustice #WeWillNotBeSilent #ProtectOurRights #DefendFreedom #FutureOfOurChildren #RiseForJustice

🔴The deranged dictator’s son livetweeting torture from his basement telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/05…

Here is a letter I wrote to some of the elders of Ankole and Kigezi Sub-regions regarding the barbaric actions of Gen. Museveni and his brutal son, Muhoozi Kainerugaba. They have a moral duty to disassociate themselves from the criminality committed in the name of their tribe, and perhaps help save our nation from a terrible situation. We want to always go on record in every situation.

In Africa, Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo, the President of oil-rich Equatorial Guinea 🇬🇶 , has been in power for 46 years. He is currently 82 years old, much older than Traoré, yet the West won't call him a dictator because they benefit from his looting and oil. Paul Biya, the President of Cameroon 🇨🇲 , has been in power for 43 years. He is currently 91 years old, yet France is fine with him and won’t call him a dictator because he is their puppet and does whatever they want. Yoweri Museveni, the President of Uganda 🇺🇬 , has been in power for 39 years. He is currently 79 years old, yet the West is not trying to remove him because he serves their interests and they benefit from his corruption. Ismail Omar Guelleh, the President of Djibouti 🇩🇯 , has been in power for 26 years. He is currently 77 years old, yet the Americans don't call him a dictator because his country hosts the largest U.S. military base in Africa. As Thomas Sankara once said, "If you see the West praise me, just know that I have betrayed you." The West doesn’t go after the leaders who are destroying, looting, and exploiting Africa. They go after the leaders who resist their imperial systems, their neocolonial control, and those who fight for total economic liberation. They killed Thomas Sankara and supported Blaise Compaoré. They killed Patrice Lumumba and allowed Mobutu Sese Seko to destroy Congo. They killed Muammar Gaddafi, and now Libya is a war-torn, modern slave depot nation. The West’s only interest is their own. They have no genuine concern for Africa’s progress. All they want, and all they have ever wanted, is to see Africa drowning in poverty, terrorism, and disunity, while they and their puppet leaders in Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Congo, South Africa, Mozambique, Ivory Coast, Cameroon, Uganda, Kenya, etc continue to destroy the continent from within. They lie about Islamist terrorism in Africa, but it is their own handiwork. They are the ones who create these terrorist groups, fund them, and arm them to prevent African countries from prospering while they loot African resources. Think about it: why are terrorists in Nigeria primarily active in the Niger Delta and areas rich in strategic minerals and resources? It's plain and simple: they create the terrorists, supply them with modern weapons (where would illiterate militants get the expertise and resources to buy and operate such weapons otherwise?), and push them to destabilize African nations that have the potential to become a super power. Meanwhile, behind the scenes, they and their puppet leaders continue to steal minerals and enrich themselves. It’s that simple. That’s why Boko Haram has existed in Nigeria for longer than you can imagine, and yet Africa’s third-strongest army, the Nigerian Army, has been unable to eliminate them for years now. Hilarious. The West will continue to support their puppets as long as it benefits them, while they will do everything they can to eliminate anti-imperialist and anti-neocolonial leaders like Traoré who are against their atrocious imperial policies. Wake up, young Africans. This is the script.

I would like to express my gratitude to all the peace-loving, freedom-loving patriots and pan-Africanists who rallied around the world on Wednesday April 30, 2025 to support our commitment and our vision for a new Burkina Faso and a new Africa, free from imperialism and neo-colonialism. Your active solidarity and this demonstration of sympathy strenghtens our conviction that the fight we are waging for a fairer and more equitable world is justified. We will never bend our backs in the face of adversity; we will stand firm until our peoples are truly emancipated. With you, we are certain that victory over the forces of evil is at hand. Together, in solidarity, we will defeat imperialism and neo-colonialism for a free, dignified and sovereign Africa.

History makers! 🇺🇬 Uganda have qualified for their first-ever FIFA tournament: the FIFA U-17 World Cup! Uganda will be one of 48 teams competing in Qatar later this year, with the expanded tournament giving more nations than ever before the chance to gain experience on the global stage.
