Museveni’s son said he is very proud of the pain and hurt he is inflicting on former Lord Mayor Erias Lukwago. He must be very proud of himself, seeing this video. But as the saying goes, no one is tall enough to see the future. One day, the tables will turn and all these atrocities will be accounted for, one by one.
You killed my son!
Ugandan Member of Parliament Hon. John Musila has urged citizens to boycott South African companies operating in Uganda particularly MTN Uganda @mtnug and Stanbic Uganda

The silence of the CEOs is a lack of CSR
In a country with a serious government, these three individuals @AAgather, @SpireJim and @GodwinTOKO would be awarded national honours for opening the lid and blowing the whistle on the grand corruption that was taking place in Parliament. I can't help but remember the kind of vitriol they received from regime apologists for releasing details of shocking transactions of billions landing on personal accounts. At the highest level, they were branded traitors and agents of foreigners.
Today, the same facts they revealed are stated in court documents. Even when the regime continues to harass them for their work, this moment provides all of us a lesson that when you remain consistent at doing the right thing, you'll most certainly be vindicated at the right time.

According to reports, he was legally documented and operated his shop with the required authorization.
US Senator Jim Risch demands a review of Washington's security ties with Uganda after Military Chief Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba closes three media outlets.
It turns out that journalist and media personality @TimKalyegira, who has been missing, was actually abducted, held incommunicado, and is now being arraigned for charging! Simply because he's been outspoken about Museveni and his son's crimes. We got to this point because everyone thought that someone else would fix it. Hopefully everyone now realises the collective danger and the collective duty. Only then shall we be free.
Uganda's leading independent media group says it is under "military siege" after the army chief - who is the son of President Yoweri Museveni - ordered the closure of TV stations, newspapers and radio outlets. https://t.co/jcRs1i6MLK

The offices remain under military siege following an order by President Museveni's son and military chief Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba to shut down Nation Media Group (NMG) Uganda outlets.
A similar siege has been reported at the NTV and Spark TV broadcast centre at Serena Hotel since around 12am on Sunday, where military officials have since taken the stations off air.
Other affected outlets include Dembe FM, KFM, and The East African, all under NMG.

28th June 2026 | FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
STATEMENT ON THE CLOSURE AND MILITARY SIEGE OF UGANDAN MEDIA HOUSES AFFILIATED TO THE NATION MEDIA GROUP
The National Unity Platform strongly condemns the military’s arbitrary closure and continuing siege of @ntvuganda, The @DailyMonitor, @sparktvuganda, @DembeFm, and other media houses under the @NationMediaGrp that started at dawn today Sunday, 28th June 2026.
The closure, enforced outside any known legal framework, is a primitive attack on press freedom and the citizens’ right to access information -- moreover by a regime now committing even worse tyranny than what it supposedly sought to end when it waged the 1980s war.
We stand in solidarity with the journalists, editors, staff, leadership and audience of the affected media houses, and empathize with all who are going to bear the related economic losses.
We urge all citizens and institutions, particularly political actors and members of the civil society, to prepare for increased repression in the coming days owing to the deepening constitutional crisis in the country.
Historically, the determination of Ugandans to be free has outlasted every regime that thought it was powerful enough to stay forever or clever enough to mutate into another. We remain confident that this time, too, the people’s aspirations for a free and democratic country shall prevail.
