For those who think talking politics ..demanding for freedom and justice will soil your well curated personal brands we see you.
Trust us to remember too
Hon. Ssegona raises an important question: If you believe your actions are lawful and just, submit them to a competent court. If the police, DPP, and even the judiciary already favour you, why fear accountability? Why avoid the rule of law? Why resort to raw brutality?
How do other African Presidents(current and former) feel when they see Obama launching something marvelous like Obama Presidential Centre?
I am sure they can't even stomach watching such a ceremony because it will remind them of the clowns they are.
Today, we rally our voices not in fear, but in solidarity. We call on all defenders of justice, human rights, and freedom of expression to speak up and keep this issue in the public eye.
Use your voice. Share the message. Demand accountability.

And this is the reminder than history keeps passing on.
That we rise, and we fall.
The young today are the old of tomorrow.
An elephant can be humbled by a bee in its trunk.
We are infinitesimally small in time and space.
One day, you are critiquing your father, and when you finally become an adult, you extend empathy.
You realize he was not the all-knowing superstar, he too, faced the same limits that humans face.
No single human can have the final say on time and space.
The world is more probabilistic than deterministic. Rare events happen and alter history as we knew it. The world is always reminding humans of their limits.
The Berlin wall collapses. The Soviet Union collapses.
The guy giving Putin the bloodiest nose is a former grain trader
You can abduct and torture @NinyeTabz but you cannot break his resolve.
This does not show the strength of the regime, it only exposes how weak and decadent it is.
We stand with you my brother.
Just like the Amin regime, one day all this will be history.

I'm struck by the number of people who yesterday mocked Lukwago but who are now coming out, one by one, to apologise to the country, without anybody forcing them to.
It shows the degree of public anger and trauma.
MK has successfully united the country...against himself.
Our parents told us about the deeply dark days they lived through during the Amin days.
In an unfortunate and cruel twist of fate, we'll now be the ones telling our children of these dark days we're living through.
History, predictably, is repeating itself.
May the dawn come.
A few days ago, I posted a comment by former Mossad Director, Yossi Cohen, who said a nation's greatest power is in a society's INNER STRENGTH.
Ugandan society lacks this inner strength.
So, what is "inner strength"?
Understanding it is key to how we face the current crisis.
That stuff that MK does is really not normal stuff. The things he says are not normal things. The man does what he wants, says what he wants & always gets away with it. It’s painfully sad.
In another world where the rule of law works, nothing of this sort would happen. In fact, in such a world, MK would be behind bars for several crimes committed against Ugandans & Humanity in general.
A man who takes pride in torturing other human beings & is unapologetic about it is a man who has no soul & should not exist with other human beings. Such a man is unmoved by all the innocent blood that’s been shed, unfazed by the needless tears that have been shed, and unbothered by the countless lives that have been ruined and/or lost at his behest.
One day that impunity shall come to an end. One day the hunter shall become the hunted and Ugandans will demand and get accountability for all these horrible things they are being put through.
The time will come when the chickens come home to roost. I hope and pray the Universe grants you and I long life because that day will come. And even if you and I aren’t here, someone else will. They shall celebrate the end of one of the worst dynasties this world has ever seen.
People forget that after they deconstruct, they also have to reconstruct...
After you've tone down a structure, you must now build something in itself or else risk floating in a void...
Reconstruction is harder!
