@AgoraCFR @ACME_Africa @Media_Focus @ClimateActionug @AAgather @SpireJim @GodwinTOKO @Sambannz @joshjeje2 @chrisatuk @CultonScovia There's nothing to celebrate anymore. lets just defend the truth. #DefendTruthUG #WPFD2025
In a society like Uganda where most journalists are not or poorly paid, a society where journalists are paid to conceal the truth, a society where Press freedom is suffocated, i celebrate the brave scribes who have stood strong. (Tag them). #DefendTruthUG #JournalismIsNotACrime
Today, on #WorldPressFreedomDay2025, we honor journalists who risk everything to speak truth to power. A free press empowers us all. Let’s defend independent journalism, fight censorship, and protect the voices that hold power to account.
#DefendTruthUG
On #WorldPressFreedomDay, let’s commit to #DefendTruthUG by prioritizing evidence over rumor, bias, and misinformation. Join @ACME_Africa , @AgoraCFR , @Media_Focus , and @ClimateActionug in championing factual journalism! #DefendTruthUG #WPFD2025
Today is World Press Freedom Day. In Uganda, journalists face threats, censorship, and economic hardship—yet they persist. A free press isn’t a privilege. It’s a right. It’s the cornerstone of every democracy. #WorldPressFreedomDay #DefendTruthUG #WPFD2025
Uganda’s media is caught between repression, financial precarity, and public scepticism, yet its role in democracy is vital. These are the untold stories of Uganda’s journalists.
