I said this in a room of about 30 lawyers in January last year when @kiizaeron was violently grabbed out of a court room representing his client and sent to prison. Today, it’s another lawyer.. the profession needs to go back to the drawing board and determine how it can practice in the current environment. But it also needs to rise up.. all of us as Ugandans need to. This impunity will finish us all, finish the country we thought we would leave for future generations.
We can’t carry on like all is normal. If as lawyers we let off Lukwago’s abduction with a sigh, very soon we shall have no profession to profess. We all need to stand up and demand the unconditional release of our colleague. @ug_lawsociety Lawyering is not a crime.

Proud of Curaçao! Only 150000 inhabitants (part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands) and they managed to qualify for the Worldcup. I was so happy when they scored, although in the end they lost against Germany.

Ssemujju is a sellout and what he calls critique is just a Museveni talking point
Replying to @klup
I criticized NUP members when they insulted others opposition figures, and I'll say the same about Mr. Ssemujju calling people "kapere." No politician should act as if they belong to a superior class of Ugandans. That remark was uncalled for. And i see no remorse for it

Thank you Daniel. Bobi Wine & David Lewis cant liberate Uganda on their own. Our President has told Ugandans million times, but they dont listen. They kneel down for him, expecting he will liberate Uganda just like that.
Replying to @nbstv @SsemujjuIN
I’m not sure how you consolidate the opposition factions in Uganda when the political class is merely competing for positions. Even inside NUP, those who don’t receive the party card after the primaries defected, and some ran as independents. It’s hard to place the blame on Bobi Wine when politics is a career for many. The idea of liberating Uganda from dictatorship often takes a back seat to political ambition. Opposition supporters are looking for leaders ready to sacrifice, and sadly, most elected officials don’t fit that description.

Dont fight Ssemujju lies with more lies comrade. The dictator has deeply infiltrated our party and for some comrades their love for money is greater than their love for our President: they refuse to hand over their DR forms to HQ.
According to Hon. Ssemujju Nganda, President Bobi Wine does not have the capacity to lead this country and spent his time building himself instead of building the party. Well Hon. Ssemujju, let me bring this to your attention: under President Bobi Wine’s leadership, NUP has established headquarters across different regions and built grassroots structures across the country. Those same grassroots structures became a major force in changing political outcomes, including in areas many believed were already secured.

In Uganda BW music is banned, Alexandria was abducted for playing his Music, he hasnt been allowed to perform. In Netherlands hypocritical NRM supporters seek asylum or find a desperate single Dutch woman to get economic Freedom. And, oh irony, then they play Bobi Wine music.

Maybe we should reverse the age limit. Only senile Presidents of 80 .
Happy 80th Birthday, Mr. President @POTUS . On this special occasion, we wish you good health, strength, and many more years of service. Thank you for your unwavering support for the Jewish people and the nation of Israel. May God grant you wisdom and peace as you continue to lead and inspire many around the world. We also pray for God’s blessings upon the leaders and people of both Uganda and the United States, that the two nations may continue to enjoy friendship, cooperation, and prosperity. “Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people He chose for His inheritance.” -Psalm 33:12 (NIV) Happy 80th Birthday, Mr. President Donald Trump. May God bless you, and may God bless the leaders and citizens of Israel, Uganda, and the United States of America.

This has to end. 27 EU countries have friendly relationships with Yoweri Museveni & other African dictators. They cry about LGTB rights but remain silent about women and children being killed with European bullets. Officially they stand for Human Rights. Words are not enough EU.
This has to end. 65 countries still criminalise consensual same-sex relations. Words are not enough. In 2024, the EU supported 10,500 human rights defenders worldwide. 21% were LGBTIQ . Reliable. And that's the whole point. Read more: link.europa.eu/BjHcb3

UPDATE: Unfortunately, comrade @AkisoBenjamin has been denied bail, and the case has been adjourned to the 17th. The courts are increasingly appearing to play politics at the expense of our rights and freedoms. But we shall not give up — we will continue fighting peacefully for a better Uganda. #FreeAllPoliticalPrisonersInUganda

The images coming from Kinshasa today are truly heartbreaking. The level of violence being inflicted on peaceful protesters, and opposition leaders like @MartinFayulu, is abhorrent. A real shame to witness how @FelixUdps has misruled this country that is brimming with potential.
Gunshots were heard near the People's Palace in Kinshasa, the Democratic Republic of Congo #DRC, on Friday as opposition groups staged a sit-in protest despite a ban by city authorities, local media reported. Organizers said the demonstration was intended to oppose proposed constitutional reforms and a referendum bill that they fear could open the door for President Félix Tshisekedi to seek a third term in office.

Kindly change 'militarized' to 'violent', and add 'rigged by massive ballot box stuffing'. Thx comrade.
It will be written in history books that Museveni, who came to power after a bloody bush war, ruled for decades with an iron fist. In the January 1, 2026 election, heavily militarized and widely disputed, questions were raised about transparency, and the Electoral Commission failed to clearly present results to the public. It remains a controversial moment in Uganda’s political history.

Nelson Mandela is famous for forgiveness. Some time after his release from prison he went to visit and cheer for the South-african rugby team. This team was a whites-only team, whose parents had been locking him up for 25 years. Thank you for reminding me of this.
