I joined @TheWorld's @MarcoWerman to discuss why leaders who cling to power at the expense of their people remain one of the world's greatest threats, and why Uganda’s struggle for freedom deserves urgent global attention.
Kindly listen to the interview here:
These documents, publicized under America's public disclosure laws, reveal that the Museveni regime is busy hiring foreign agents in Washington DC to white wash its battered image before the world. According to the documents, the regime is executing agreements with American lobbyists to engage American legislators, NGOs, the media, and others on its behalf. But it's too late because the truth about Uganda is already out and absolutely nothing the regime does can buy it back!
“Uganda’s partners should urgently press Museveni’s government to end these abuses, uphold the rule of law, and ensure accountability for those responsible.”

Four days have passed since the televised abduction of our Deputy President for the Buganda Region, Hon. Muhammad Muwanga Kivumbi, by gun-wielding men in plain clothes, aided by Uganda police and traffic officers.
To this day, his whereabouts remain unknown.
The police and the military have refused to account for him. Equally disturbing is the silence of many religious and cultural leaders in the face of such blatant lawlessness, thereby normalizing it.
Where is Hon. Muhammad Muwanga Kivumbi?
Regime operatives disguise themselves and commit heinous crimes against us, convinced that the world will simply move on and forget them. Take, for instance, this thug DRAKESON MUHIMBURA, a military officer.
Under police and military protection, Muhimbura led the gang that savagely attacked and grievously wounded us during our presidential campaign in Gulu last year. He thought his identity would remain a mystery forever only for one of his fellow thugs to casually blow his cover! Muhimbura is now desperately begging for the post to be deleted!
Since social media has become our public archive, let us keep these images here, too. When the time is right, THESE ARE THE CRIMINALS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE.
JUST IN: NUP Vice President for Buganda Muwanga Kivumbi has been arrested in Mpigi, just hours after being granted bail.
He was intercepted at a roadblock while travelling to Kampala.

I've just been informed of the violent abduction of my Deputy President for Buganda Region, Hon. Muhammad Muwanga Kivumbi, shortly after he was released on bail yesterday.
The criminal regime is doing all this to instil fear within the population, but these tactics have been employed by despots all over the world and throughout history. They never win in the end! UGANDA WILL BE FREE.
Hon. Muwanga Kivumbi abducted from a roadblock in Mpigi, on his way from Butambala, and driven off to an unknown destination. Crazy country, crazy times!
We’ve just learnt that on his way back to Kampala from Butambala a short while ago, Hon Muwanga Kivumbi’s car was stopped at a military roadblock in Mpigi, and armed men moving in a drone have taken him away to an unknown location!
