A short while ago, I spoke with Hon. Muhammad Muwanga Kivumbi, our @NUP_Ug Deputy President for Buganda Region. What a delight to see that after several months, he is out of unlawful detention without trial - at least temporarily. As everyone knows, Hon. Kivumbi never committed any offence. The criminals who attacked his home and murdered people are the ones who should be answering for their crimes - and I believe they will, at the right time. For now, we welcome him back, and the other comrades he was detained with.
It is always a great delight to see that even in the midst of so much rot, there are still judicial officers who will rise above the pervasive intimidation and live to their oath.
After "winning" a 7th term in January, Ugandan Pres. Museveni has had dozens of protesters killed and hundreds of opposition members prosecuted. Among them are opposition leaders Bobi Wine, who is now in hiding, and Kizza Besigye, who has been imprisoned. https://t.co/KDcKpR6lTB
