Dear clerkship (& intern) students,
“I hope your never lose your sense of wonder
...
I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance,
Never settle for the path of least resistance,
Livin’ might mean takin’ chances, but they’re worth takin’,
I hope you dance ...”

An attack of a member of the civil society is an attack on the whole network!
The arrest of @nickopiyo is just a tip of the iceberg of the shrinking civic space in our Country. We stand in solidarity with our friends @chapterfourug and say this must stop! #FreeNicholasOpiyo
JUST IN: @nickopiyo has been granted cash bail of Ugx. 15m bail by the High Court.
"However serious a charge is, it all but remains an allegation. Courts are expected not to deny bail as a punishment." - Hon. Lady Justice Jane Okuo Kajuga.

Disappointed to learn that the only decision taken today wrt to the charges against @NickOpiyo was to remand his case to another court and to continue to detain him. #JusticeDelayedIsJusticeDenied
This Christmas looks different for all of us. As we spend time with those we love—in person or virtually—let us celebrate the blessings we cherish, embrace the spirit of giving, and look out for one another. From my family to yours, Merry Christmas!

For over a week now, this activist called Nakimanya Hellen aka Aunt Kaduuka has been under illegal detention at SID Kireka! She was violently arrested, apparently for using social media to expose the dictatorship! The 48 hour rule totally ignored.
