A few days from now, it will be three months since Christopher Goddy, a comrade and musician better known as 'King Zale,' was abducted from Kamokya. His family is very distressed, having looked for him everywhere without a trace.
As usual, the regime whose men abducted King Zale remains completely silent about his whereabouts – the same silence it has maintained about all other comrades who have been missing for several years now! We continue demanding for his immediate release from illegal detention and an end to this impunity!
Sadly, no lie told but what I find most interesting is that Wangadya is the one saying this.
(I will be surprised if she completes her term smoothly after making such statements.)
The absence of violence at anti-migrant protests this week in South Africa was not evidence of stability. It was evidence of how little authority the state can project when confronted with organised pressure.

Army arrests stir fear, panic
“I never thought there would come a time when I would look at Museveni positively. But now I think we were better off with Museveni than with his son. At least Museveni would do bad things and deny them. This one breaks the law and is happy to tweet about it. We are living through very dangerous times.”

In Betrayal – Season II
Judge: Chris.
Chris: Yes, Your Honour.
Judge: You fully understand the charges against you and the consequences if you're convicted?
Chris: Absolutely, Your Honour.
Judge: We're talking about up to 14 years in prison... and refunding every shilling in question.
Chris: I understand completely, Your Honour.
Judge: Here is the thing. The prosecution says it would consider a reduced sentence if you turned state witness against AAA.
I'll give you time to think about it.
Chris: No, Your Honour. I don't need any time.
In fact... where do I sign?

World Bank warns: Uganda running out of jobs
By the end of 2025, Uganda faced an estimated jobs deficit of 1.64 million, while about 90% of the country’s workforce remained in the informal sector.
“Closing this gap is not just an economic priority; it is the defining development challenge of the next decade.”

Women will never check on you, bro. If you receive an unexpected "Hi," they definitely want to borrow money from you. Normalize ignoring women's texts.
Kaikai: What we see in Uganda is remotely possible in Kenya. What we are witnessing is part of a process that has been in motion in the Yoweri Museveni succession. What we are seeing is the jostling for the post-Museveni time. What we have seen since 2022 is the increasing positioning of General Kainerugaba as a potential successor to his father #CitizenNewsGang @LinusKaikai
Thank you SG. We get more credit than the rest of the team at @AgoraCFR but we wouldn’t achieve all this without them particularly our very talented graphics designer, our IT guru, @Sambannz@joshjeje2@AloikinOpoloje@Joshua_lawel@OtafiireH and others who prefer to stay behind the scenes.
.@antonioguterres is closely following recent developments in #Uganda.
He notes with concern reports regarding the detention of political and civic actors, including cases in which the whereabouts of some individuals have not been clearly established.

If you wanted to create a TV series about the crazy family of an African dictator Prez Museveni’s would be the model-with son General “Looney” Muhoozi in a starring role. But there is nothing funny about the hurt his antics cause or the ridicule to Uganda. https://t.co/USqfZCoe9u
In a country with a serious government, these three individuals @AAgather, @SpireJim and @GodwinTOKO would be awarded national honours for opening the lid and blowing the whistle on the grand corruption that was taking place in Parliament. I can't help but remember the kind of vitriol they received from regime apologists for releasing details of shocking transactions of billions landing on personal accounts. At the highest level, they were branded traitors and agents of foreigners.
Today, the same facts they revealed are stated in court documents. Even when the regime continues to harass them for their work, this moment provides all of us a lesson that when you remain consistent at doing the right thing, you'll most certainly be vindicated at the right time.
Mr Mugume it is! My apologies for the late response, I was in class.
Before I say anything else, I'd like to address the typo in my first post: "There’s no way you let yourself get respected" should have been "There’s no way you let yourself get DISrespected."
You asked for my point and here it is. Today you reported that Nation Media Group's owners committed to "patriotic, balanced and objective" journalism after meeting the CDF, Muhoozi. The man who sent soldiers to shut the newsrooms also was the one who supplied the official story of how the problem was resolved, and you published his version as ‘the news’. That is the problem with your method of reporting.
Your report did not mention that Reporters Without Borders (RSF) and the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) both heavily condemned the shutdown of NTV and Daily Monitor. Muhoozi himself posted on X, in a since-deleted post: "In Uganda, I DO NOT believe in a free press!"
When soldiers close your colleagues' newsrooms and the man who ordered it is the one announcing changes in their organization, by repeating his words you are not practicing balanced journalism, you are only conforming to the status quo. And, to repeat myself, you are allowing yourself to be used as a puppet.
Let me ask you this:
What does it mean to be a journalist in Uganda if the terms under which you operate are dictated by the same army general who shut down the biggest media house in the country at will?
@graduateprenuer@kampala_solomon So in your in understanding of the matter, his father sided with regulations regarding the elections thats why he is in the country right??? And thats he agreed to shake hands with the incumbent!!
Prof. Peter Kagwanja: There are two solutions to the Ugandan issue. One is regional, supported by international forces that agree with what we are doing, which is essentially mobilizing a broad social movement of intellectuals and political leaders, and ensuring that the momentum is sustained. #CitizenDayBreak
