Two leading civil society leaders and distinguished lawyers, Dr. Sarah Bireete E.D @ccgea1 and Eunice Musiime E.D @amwaafrika are the latest victims of the ongoing criminality. They have been abducted by the military and driven off to an unknown destination. These are definitely tough times, but the TOUGH PEOPLE OF UGANDA will outlive them. Uganda will be free!
I have seen mixed reactions from a section of the public regarding my decision to nominate the Mawogola North MP Aine Sodo Kaguta. I understand the backlash and I absorb it in good faith. But well here is why I did so; my move was sarcastic and intended to address the issue of nepotism which has largely characterized the NRM regime.
A single family has dominated all the arms of government (cabinet, judiciary and executive) and they now decide how these other arms should be constituted. They have demonstrated that they can decide who becomes Speaker or Chief Justice yet these two arms of government are meant to be autonomous. It is against this background that I decided that Hon. Sodo, a member of the ‘First family’ equally takes up the position of the Deputy Speaker since their family lust for authority and power is insatiable.
To comrades who have not understood my move, please be guided that this was entirely sarcastic and that can be judged from the diction that I used to drive my point. Thank you!

I condemn in the strongest terms the violent attack on the home of Barbara Itungo, the brutal assault on her, her staff, and the continued persecution of the family of @HEBobiwine.
A violent, militarised election can never reflect the will of the people. Kidnaps, abductions, killings, leaders forced into hiding—and nearly 10 days on, the internet still deliberately crippled.
This is state terror, not democracy. This is not the peaceful country we fought to have.
ABDUCTION ALERT🚨: Hon. Bright Muhumuza, NUP Coordinator for the Western Region, has been brutally abducted by NRM armed men and taken to an unknown location. (14/01/2026)

Not mentioned in this article is the fact that #Uganda's @mkainerugaba has also been referred to the ICC due to credible allegations of torture of opposition figures and activists, arbitrary arrests and holding dissidents incommunicado in torture centers.
