Opposition figures condemned the raid as unlawful and raised concerns for Lukwago’s safety as his location remains undisclosed.

Ugandan Special Forces Command officers raided opposition lawyer Erias Lukwago’s Kampala home before dawn Monday, using vehicles known in Uganda as drones.

[Kayonga Paul @PaulKayonga1]

The suit alleges threats and involvement in Besigye’s November 2024 abduction from Nairobi for treason charges. Video shared online showed Lukwago being taken away, and Gen. Kainerugaba posted on X, warning against serving the papers.

Monday’s exhumation was professional, but it should be the last of its kind. That we needed DNA from a 19-year-old grave shows we lack trust, documentation, and legal tools to resolve paternity and succession without disturbing the dead.

The relevant question is not how Kafeero lived privately, but how Uganda will keep his public teachings alive and why his own children cannot learn life from his 21 albums containing 83 masterpieces of oral literature.

First time in Buvuma...

But the framing reveals deeper fault lines in Uganda’s media landscape, specifically its tendency toward political parallelism and the lingering effects of prior confrontations between press and Parliament.

When joint security forces raided Anita Among, the story had everything Ugandan media thrives on: power, scandal, wealth, and a dramatic fall.

But Senegal warns that this is the most dangerous phase.

A post-Museveni moment would feel like Arsenal’s trophy lift, raw relief, and street celebrations. Opposition, civil society, the diaspora, and even NRM moderates could unite around a transitional framework.

It has taken about 5 years to make this happen!

In the shadows of Southeast Asia’s growing cyber-scam industry, hundreds of Kenyans and Ugandans have been deceived, trafficked, and trapped in notorious online fraud compounds, unable to leave, unable to seek help, and hidden from the world.

These wiseacres at Bank of Uganda MUST be stopped from informing the public that they regulate “forex brokers” & forex trading! They dont have that legal mandate in law! In this @DailyMonitor article, I explain the difference btn a “forex bureau” & a “forex trader” @BOU_Official

She rose outside the Museveni family orbit, consolidated control of Parliament, and commanded a section of the ruling establishment’s loyalty. That independence may have been her undoing.

[Kayonga Paul @PaulKayonga1]

Anita Annet Among went from Speaker of Parliament to a political casualty. The speed of her fall should unsettle anyone who still believes Ugandan power operates only through formal institutions.

In conflict zones, preparation can save lives. Journalists should verify routes, understand the environment, carry emergency contacts, and avoid working alone where possible. Staying alert and prioritizing safety is part of responsible reporting.
