Very saddened to learn of the passing of our elderly comrade and friend, Mzee Saava George who has been sickly for some time. Mzee Saava has fought the good fight, he has finished the race, he has kept the faith till the very end. He has been such an impassioned advocate for democracy and good governance. May his soul rest in peace.

A group of goons led by @MubarakMunyagwa and @BigirwaGen are very busy on tiktok discussing the future of @NUP_Ug insteady of selling there party to the uganda, if the agenda was to change governance, how offen do you critize extrajudical killings, abductions and others.

WATCH: Masaka High Court has resumed hearing the election petition filed by NUP’s Gorreth Namugga, challenging the victory of NRM’s Dez Byuma Oswald in Mawogola South Constituency, Sembabule District. Testifying before Justice Rosette Comfort Kania, Namugga told court she did not attend the tally centre on the day the winner was declared because she had allegedly been assaulted on the eve of the election, leaving her unable to go there. She further alleges that the election was marred by widespread irregularities, including ballot stuffing and violence against her supporters, which she claims prevented some of them from voting.

@nwscug do you have plans of doing restoration work on the road you have dug up in kira or should we count our losses?

[David Lewis Rubongoya @DavidLRubongoya]

This afternoon in Kitende, we attended the introduction and Nikkah ceremony, for Sophie Mulyanyama, a daughter to Makindye East MP, Hon. Ali Nganda Mulyanyama.

Later at Munyonyo, we attended the wedding reception for Kevin and Martha. Martha is a daughter to Lubaga South MP, Hon. Nassolo Euginia.

Big congratulations to the two @NUP_Ug MPs on reaching this incredible milestone for their children.

[PIUS JADWAR @One_PiusJadwar]

Our able Secretary General, @DavidLRubongoya, has visited Jeremiah, son of Olivia Lutaaya, at his school during visitation day.

We pray that Olivia returns home on Friday, 30th October, to reunite with her family. No child deserves to grow up without their mother by their side.

Abducted three years ago and later taken to prison, Comrade Angulibo from Yumbe District, West Nile, has never appeared in court. He remains detained at Kigo Prison despite no known criminal charges. Why is he still being held?

[David Lewis Rubongoya @DavidLRubongoya]

Fare thee well our brother, friend and comrade, Hon. Matovu Charles. Many, many thanks to the thousands of people who came to say goodbye to him. May his gentle soul rest in peace🙏🏾

MY RESPONSE TO THE VICE CHANCELLOR AND KYAMBOGO UNIVERSITY ADMINISTRATION.

I have received numerous comments from students 👨‍🎓regarding how the Vice Chancellor, Prof. Katunguka, the Dean of Students, Mr. Mugume Bright and the Chief Security Officer, Mr. Allan, have continuously attacked me publicly, character assassinating me and portraying me as a bad example within the student community and nationally.

Despite being expelled as Guild President, I chose to remain silent, keep away from these provocations and continue with my life.

I want to sincerely thank the students who have always spoken well of me and defended me in my absence. May the Lord bless you 🙏🙏abundantly.

This morning, I woke up a bit late for the 6:30 AM Mass at Namugongo Catholic Shrine ⛪️, which was almost ending by 7:30 AM. I therefore opted for the second Mass in Luganda, celebrated by Rev. Fr. Mayega Ponsiano

His preaching was extraordinary. He reminded us that Jesus summarized the Ten Commandments into two:

1. Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength.
2. Love ❤️ your neighbour as you love yourself.

He also shared the story of Alexander the Great, who, despite his great wealth and power, left a will stating that upon his death, great doctors should carry his coffin, all his silver and gold should be scattered on the roads for people to walk on and he should be buried with his hands 🙌 open. When asked why, he said: All titles - professor 👨‍🏫 , president, doctor 👨‍⚕️ , minister - all riches, buildings, vehicles and money will remain on earth. The only treasure we go with is the treasure of LOVE ❤️.

That preaching touched me deeply and it has compelled me to respond.

Whatever I did as Guild President, I did out of LOVE ❤️ for the students of Kyambogo University - many of whom come from poor families where parents have to sell land, cattle 🐄 or take loans just to afford quality education.

What is wrong with asking management to allow students who have paid 70% of tuition to sit for exams?

What is wrong with asking management to waive the UGX 50,000 surcharge imposed on students for delayed tuition payment?

What is wrong with demanding accountability for the money students pay, for not functioning 🤔?

Students pay UGX 30,000 for medical examination and another UGX 30,000 for medical subscription. What is the purpose of the medical examination fee for freshers when it only involves measuring weight and blood 🩸 pressure? Is that worth UGX 30,000? UGX 30,000 x 20,000 students = UGX 600,000,000 (600 Million). Where does this money go?

We pay UGX 50,000 for admission. With 20,000 students admitted every academic year, that totals UGX 1 Billion, excluding those who apply and are not admitted. When I demanded accountability for that one billion, I was told it is spent on an admission ceremony which does not even cost UGX 20 Million - a fact students 👨‍🎓can witness and testify to. When I suggested that this money should be used to construct lecture halls and purchase buses branded "2026/2027 Academic Year," the response was to expel me.

In conclusion, the treasure of LOVE ❤️ I had and still for Kyambogo University students is what led to my expulsion.

I now leave Prof. Katunguka, Mr. Mugume Bright and Mr. Allan to the hands of Almighty God.

The truth is that we are dealing with unresolved pain as a society 💔

[Joel Ssenyonyi @JoelSsenyonyi]

On a very sad note, Hon Charles Matovu, the immediate former MP of Busiro South, who has been trying to reclaim his stolen victory in court has died.
He passed on after a medical challenge that he got abruptly this week.
We shall avail more details about this very sad incident in due course.

[Maseruka Robert @MaserukaRobert]

With heavy hearts, we bid farewell to Hon. Charles Matovu. This evening at our headquarters, we gathered to pay our final respects to the former Busiro South MP. May the Lord bring comfort to his family. Rest well, Hon. Matovu.

Dear Gen. @KagutaMuseveni
With all due respect most of our parents and grandparents liked you for the various values you had stood on. Having made a huge parliament with less productive members is one of the reasons why this generation is so bitter. Think for the better

[National Unity Platform @NUP_Ug]

Deeply heartbreaking!
