We send warmest greetings to the great people of Busoga and congratulate His Majesty William Wilberforce Gabula Nadiope IV on his 12th Coronation Anniversary. May the Almighty grant you many more years of wisdom, health, and a prosperous reign.
Afunvughe Isebantu!
Dr. Kizza Besigye - an icon of our struggle, a pillar of resilience, and a true elder of the Ugandan liberation movement.
For decades, Dr. Besigye has consistently chosen conviction over comfort. He has remained steadfast and completely unyielding in the face of brutal persecution, multiple unlawful detentions, and constant threats to his life.
The Museveni regime continues to harass and torment him in the hope that they will break his spirit. Yet, through it all, he continues to stand firm - his spirit unbroken.
While we can never repay him for his enduring leadership and refusal to bow to tyranny, we can stand with him in his hour of need. I am grateful to our friends who have launched this solidarity campaign to raise funds for his welfare and mounting legal costs while he and his colleagues continue to languish in jail.
I encourage all of us to be part of this effort. Let us contribute whatever we can to support this cause. My wife @BarbieItungoK and I are making a modest contribution of UGX 5,000,000.
By standing together during these challenging times, we send a clear message to the regime: they can jail our bodies, but they can never jail our solidarity. Their attempts to throw us into disarray will not yield. Together, we shall overcome.
The main purpose for our existence is to make a difference in other people’s lives and I’m so happy to see my brother @kingsaha_256 doing that on his birthday.
May the almighty bring more meaning to your life as you impact others.
Happy birthday ndugu 🫡.
Words can never fully express my gratitude.
Thank you to everyone who contributed and believed in the cause. 🙏🏾
Your generosity has inspired me to give back through charity. May the love you shared come back to you a thousand times.
May the Almighty Allah bless you all
Thank you @kingsaha_256 for believing in me and giving me chance to be on one of the greatest stages with you! I’ll forever be grateful!
May God answer all your prayers🙏🏾
Dr. Jimmy Spire Ssentongo @SpireJim has spent years using his voice and talents to hold power accountable as his contribution towards a better society for us all.
Instead of honoring his work, the regime is actively working to silence him through, among other oppressive tactics. A court order was recently issued against him, by which he is required to pay a total of UGX 30,000,000/= within 14 days or spend three months in prison. Why? Because he made a post on his social media platform calling out an injustice that, in the court's wisdom, amounts to contempt.
I am calling on all Ugandans of good conscience, in Uganda and abroad, to stand with Dr. Spire in whatever way we can, and help him resolve this challenge.
I was tortured and interrogated by Gen. Museveni's operatives on why i could represent a "muganda" in Court yet I'm a "munyankole" NUP's lawyer, Kenneth Kakuru.
OH no. 😭
