UPDATE: Buganda Road Chief Magistrate’s Court, presided over by Grade One Magistrate Rophine Achayo, has directed prison authorities to provide a detailed medical report on Dorothy Asio, an environmental activist under Rooted in Resistance, who collapsed during a court session. The court also cautioned against what it described as attempts to dramatise the incident. Speaking after the proceedings, lawyer Kagonza Musimbi said Asio had gone on a hunger strike in protest against delays in her prosecution. Asio is among 10 youths arrested on August 31 and charged with common nuisance. The court has adjourned the matter to November 16 for further hearing of the bail application.

Thanks @DrBerlinerMD for connecting the generational young leaders and big up @NiwaherezaBless for making us proud.

[Dr.Anyama Alfred Berliner @DrBerlinerMD]

I would like to extend my special appreciation to my brother and comrade, @NiwaherezaBless , for representing the interests of students (@NupInstitutionz) during the @WLCongress Diaspora Engagement in Berlin and using the opportunity to highlight the injustices and oppression faced by students in Uganda.

In particular, thank you for raising the case of @AkisoBenjamin and the students from Kyambogo University who were dismissed, bringing their plight to the attention of the international community.

I also appreciate you for speaking up for political prisoners, including Dr. Kizza Besigye, Olivia Lutaya, Wasswa Mufumbiro, and the many others who continue to endure detention and persecution for their political beliefs.

Thank you, comrade, for ensuring that these voices are not forgotten. Our solidarity must extend beyond borders, and the struggle for justice, freedom and human dignity must remain a collective responsibility.

Hunger Strike Update!

Tomorrow at Buganda Road Court, Asio Dorothy and 8 others are set to appear before Magistrate Achayo as our legal team continues to battle their release on mandatory bail condition grounds. They have spent 70 days so far on remand at Luziira Maximum Security Prisons for their involvement in a peaceful protest march we organized at parliament of Uganda to demand an oil free economy and economic freedom for all ordinary Ugandans.

Asio Dorothy is on day 7 of her hunger strike and she set a 10 days ultimatum to @GovUganda and @JudiciaryUG to release all prisoners of conscience but no formal response has been received yet towards fulfilling her demands. Asio remains a symbol of hope, courage and resistance in Uganda.

At this stage of her hunger strike should it cost Asio her life in order for government to listen or a formal response must be made to her ongoing protest campaign of starving for Justice.

All members of the press and public are invited to attend court at exactly 9 am.

Hunger Strike Update!!!

Reports from @UgandaPrisons are emerging that Asio Dorothy has been rushed to Luziira Murchison Bay Prison Hospital in a critical condition after her health situation deteriorated as she continues her hunger strike on day 5 in a protest campaign dubbed Starving for Justice untill all prisoners of conscience are released and she has set a 10 days ultimatum to government to respond to her demands as the condition to call off her hunger strike, short of that her hunger strike protest is on!

The medical teams at Luziira Prisons are reportedly assessing her health situation after she lost her conscious this afternoon as she last ate food on 1st November in a hunger strike protest that has drawn a lot of solidarity and support across the country.

Rooted in Resistance is currently concerned about her health situation and demand @JudiciaryUG @ODPPUGANDA @UgandaPrisons immediately release her together with other prisoners of conscience

[Rooted in Resistance 📢 @Resistance_Ug]

Hunger Strike Update!

Today we made a prison visit to check on Activist Asio Dorothy who is leading a hunger strike and has entered Day 4 on the hunger strike in jail in a protest dubbed Starving for Justice to draw attention to the ongoing judicial persecution of all prisoners of conscience who fail to get justice because of a failed system that priotizes those in power over the rule of law.

Asio Dorothy has refused to eat food since 1st November untill government responds to her demands and she has set a 10 days ultimatum for @GovUganda to respond to her demands and the @ODPPUGANDA drops all trumped charges imposed against all prisoners of conscience.

Her ongoing detention was triggered by her involvement in the peaceful protest march we organized on 31st August to demand an oil free economy and economic freedom for all ordinary Ugandans and this is not the first time Asio is protesting she has been an active activist who faced similar injustices on 10th April 2026 when she was convicted by the same Magistrate Achayo after she had spent on remand over 9 months for engaging in a similar protest against oil infrastructure development in Uganda.

At this point, we must have a moment of honesty if at all @UgandaPrisons and @ODPPUGANDA wants Asio to starve to Death in prison or grant her the demands she is tabling in her ongoing hunger strike.
