National Unity Platform (@NUP_Ug ) lawyer George Musisi has urged Ugandans to unite against human rights violations, stating that state injustices transcend political affiliations. Speaking during thanksgiving prayers at St. Joseph Church of Uganda, Bulindo, Musisi referenced the recent weeks-long disappearance of an @NRMOnline legislator @honmaggyetilu . He noted that if a ruling party MP can be detained without court presentation, no one is safe. @GeorgeMusisi4 pledged to relentlessly defend all citizens' rights, regardless of their politics. "If a Member of Parliament who belongs to the ruling NRM can be disappeared for weeks without being produced in court, then it shows that the injustices that face us don't discriminate our political difference"- Musisi. #MonitorUpdates 📹Teddy Nakaliga
