The irony is crazy. The regime shut down newspapers to protect a secret that the secret-keeper now shows off for fun. The thing they said was a dangerous lie in 2013 is the thing Muhoozi brags about in 2026. The journalists who broke the story, Wanambwa and Kasasira, mostly left the Monitor. Sejusa returned from exile, flirted with the opposition, and retired. Kale Kayihura, the police chief who helped plan the raid on the newspapers, later left office through the dock and the prison gate. And the man at the centre of it all rose, exactly on schedule, to the position everyone was punished for predicting.
So the next time the government tells you something is an outrageous lie and sends men with guns to make the point, write down the date. Give it a decade. In Uganda, today’s treasonous rumour has a strange habit of becoming tomorrow’s official programme.

If it were anyone else and Tabz was here, he’d barely be sleeping to try and find any information about them.
Abductions need to end!!

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out, because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out, because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out, because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me…and there was no one left to speak for me - Martin Niemoller.
We should all be reminded that injustice only succeeds when people wait until it’s their turn to face it.
No one is safe until we’re all safe!
We probably deserve another red card for that last post! But in all seriousness, congratulations to @Arsenal on winning the Premier League and a great run in the Champions League.
Looking forward to picking up the battle again with you next season.
