I sincerely thank you all for the overwhelming gesture of love in contributing towards my court penalties. I know you did this because you relate with my principles, work, and commitments. You never asked if I had the money or not, you simply showed up in solidarity. Even when you learnt that the initial target had been reached, you just continued sending money, and you are still sending!

I didn’t have to explain much that, although I’m aggrieved too, this case is not really about me. Some of you intervened in defence of freedoms and protection of this space for accountability. Some did it in defiance against the powerful that pee on those below.

The contributions included amounts as small as 4000/-, and from across the spectrum. Both opposition and NRM people showed up. Even ministers reached out with concern. Different tribes. Different religions and nationalities. From Uganda, Tanzania, Kenya, Ghana, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Nigeria, France, Switzerland, Netherlands, USA, Finland, UK, Sweden, Canada, Germany, Kazakstan, UAE, Brazil, … It has surely been a statement beyond me. Some just stood up for principles, some for religious reasons, some in memory of injustices they’ve themselves faced in the past and still.

This country has very many good people, and we could build on those to do much more good. The evil ones are few and have no REAL friends to count on. Neither are they really happy. They live in fear for the harm they’ve caused to others. Thanks to @kiizaeron and @AAgather for spearheading the campaign even before I asked, though I surely desired it to be a collective experience and statement. Thanks Hon. @HEBobiwine for passionately amplifying the call. Thanks everyone. I can’t name you all, but I saw you, and felt you. I must add that ever since this case started, I have never spent a single penny of mine. Well wishers, fans, and friends have carried me on their shoulders all through - and very happily. It is not me they carry though, it is the cause. Thank you.

I read from @kiizaeron that the launch was to be on Monday, but Love couldn’t wait to speak! What more wealth than living in people’s hearts! Thank you all, friends indeed. I can’t finish the list.

[Jim Spire Ssentongo @SpireJim]

The love I’ve received since yesterday, even from total strangers, is hard to explain!! I haven’t yet found the right words to comment about it.

@JudiciaryUG CAN FINE HIM. BUT WE SHOULDN’T ALLOW THEM TO SILENCE @SpireJim.

High Court presided over by His Worship Kintu Simon Zirintusa, a Registrar of the High Court of Uganda (Civil Division) at Kampala has adjudged Dr. Jimmy Spire Ssentongo afoul of “contempt of court” — for a tweet.

One of Uganda’s most respected lecturers, cartoonists and public voices has been ordered to pay 30 million shillings, or be committed to civil prison for three months, because he spoke publicly about money Kampala International University refused to refund or transfer — money belonging to the sons of his late brother.

This is oppressive Court order is a gag order dressed in legal robes. It is an attack on freedom of expression, and on every Ugandan’s right to ask a powerful institution to account for how it treats the people in its care.

The one man demanding accountability is the one facing a prison cell. When a university can walk into a courtroom and walk out with the power to silence, intimidate and threaten to jail a prominent lecturer and national figure — what fate waits for an ordinary student who dares to disagree with it? What happens to the current and former students KIU has oppressed, who have no platform, no name, and no one watching?

WE SHOULD RAISE THE MONEY. He must not be silenced. Our voices matter. I need your help here. In the words of Miria Matembe, we must all be annoyed. Give me ideas on raising the money and challenging the KIU impunity.

While on 89.2 CBS FM discussing the fight against corruption, I questioned the Museveni/NRM government’s political will to genuinely tackle corruption. The case involving former Speaker @AnitahAmong raises serious questions about selective accountability....

LOP @JoelSsenyonyi today, 8th August 2026, closed the two-day induction programme for Opposition Members of the 12th Parliament in Entebbe.
The induction equipped Members with the knowledge, tools and shared purpose needed to effectively execute their constitutional mandate and advance the Opposition’s legislative priorities.

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.

First lawyer abducted and imprisoned, second lawyer detained and deported, third lawyer persecuted and forced to flee.. @kizzabesigye1 must have no lawyer, must not have a fair hearing, must not have decent medical care. Must not live. Is there a point in time when we will stand up against these injustices?!!

: This retreat comes at a critical time. Uganda continues to face serious challenges including high cost of living, youth unemployment, poor service delivery, corruption, insecurity, land conflicts, rising public debt, and disregard for the rule of law. These challenges demand an Opposition that is united, informed, and prepared to provide leadership. Ugandans expect us not only to identify what is wrong, but also to demonstrate how it can be done better.
