We are NOT your grandchildren!! And for goodness’ sake, stop with your patronizing long speeches and history! If you want to teach, get a USE school. Ooops, you’re past retirement age!! Ugandans are NOT your children. We are CITIZENS, and you owe us a duty, not patronage!!

Mr. President, in 2023, the country’s external debt was at 48.9trillion shillings with a debt to GDP ratio of 52%. You default of payment every single year! More than 1/2 of your budget is donor funded. So what are you saying? Do you see how unpatriotic you are, you old cow?!

The planners of Tuesday’s demonstration, however, were not bothered with such issues. I politely advised them a few days ago, in my address to the Nation. They, obviously, thought that my advice was of no consequence. Please, Ugandans avoid these mistake makers. The evidence in

Ugandans must REJECT the notion that if we want anything done, we must visit the President!! What it does is make everything revolve around him, entrenches the narcissistic belief that he is the alpha and omega of the Ugandan State! It undermines the agency of citizens!

You went to the bush and killed thousands of Ugandans in Luwero. And again sent your troops to Northern Uganda and brutally killed Ugandans, raped their spirits out of them… burnt Itesots in the infamous Mukura Massacre!! Now you kill us with corruption! Is that patriotism?

Fellow Ugandans, especially the Bazzukulu. Greetings. I want to congratulate the Armed Forces and the Security Forces and the Wanainchi, for foiling or not participating in the bad demonstration that was planned for Tuesday. That demonstration, had two bad elements. Element

The Magistrate has seen the light😅 She recalled her earlier adjournment and has granted our people bail. 200k each. And we have made the payments. Everyone who was brought from prison today is going home!🥹 This is an Hallelujah moment💃🏻

At Buganda Road CM Court, Court Room , H.W Nambozo Sanula has decided to give her ruling on the bail applications for Samuel Okuja and Lubega Hussein Kasozi on 8/8/2024. Even when the State Attorney didn’t object to bail. So they’ll be back to prison for 1 more week!!!

I am absolutely thrilled to be one of the recipients of the Mandela Rhodes Foundation Scholarship to study an LLM in International Law. I had 2 prayers this year; to get a new job and a scholarship to do my Masters. God made both happen. This has been a beautiful year😊

URGENT!! We are working on establishing a single central charge sheet depository for all the cases as they come in, with the aim of tracking every single human rights violations. It is vital for us to collect as much data as possible, in order to have overwhelming evidence.

“The Bazzukulization of an entire generation and the nefarious alteration of the relationship between citizen and state.” Today I write about why we MUST reject this rhetoric. Thank you, @DailyMonitor

A shameless State Attorney tried to object Eron Kiiza from addressing the prison officers about the state of human rights, equality before the law and dignity, even in prison. Proud of him for shutting her up. “If you have no respect for human rights, please sit down!!” 🔥🔥
