@AMufumbiro, @kizzabesigye1 and other political prisoners in Uganda suffer inhumane judicial harassment and political persecution. This is engineered—in part—by some lawyers deployed by @GovUganda.
Lawyers can be, and some are, a force for good. Lawyers can also be, and some are, agents of the devil itself. The latter literally drink the blood of citizens.
Douglas Kaaya is not innocent yes, but he was working for someone in a more superior position. If you’re going to try Kaaya, then his immediate boss(es) at @NIRA_Ug too should be arraigned!
This here is selective justice!
Dear @NRMOnline , @KagutaMuseveni, @emmanuel_dombo,
don’t you really find any problem with this! Is this what you want Uganda to be known for! With all the problems faced by our people, can you still stand by this serial thieving and disregard? Do you have to act as if you aim to show citizens how much you don’t care about their cries for as long as you get what you want? How much more theft has to be reported for you to be moved to action!

So now that the sovereignty bill madness has been “cemented” (to borrow from the one of the “cementing mzee’s win” fame), let’s get back to the issues of money and the 11th Parliament. Remember the service award to Mpuuga and the commissioners? Well, the same people received another one last year(I remember seeing a something about it last year but I thought it was a rumor). Except this time it wasn’t called “service award”. The recepients are the PAs of the three commissioners; Solomon Ssilwanyi, Prossy Akampurira Mbabazi and Mathias Mpuuga. The court commissioner, Afoyochan picked for herself. #UgandaParliamentExhibitionII
Today I have accepted that the Leader of Opposition is indeed for the people, hon. Joel Senyonyi was single handedly battling against the numerous NRM MPs with the backing of the speaker, raising multiple objections against the Sovereignty bill, I know it will definitely be passed since the opposition have no numbers but we shall always remember your efforts sir.🙏
LOP @JoelSsenyonyi to Speaker @AnitahAmong :
“The committee report to this bill (Protection of Sovereignty Bill,2026) leaked . On 18th January 2023, I rose to present a committee report for COSASE on Uganda Airlines , I want to quote you verbatim what you said on the hansard. There was a leakage of the Uganda Airlines report , a property of this Parliament cannot leak and we continue debating on it.’’ Rt.Hon Speaker this report has leaked , so given that precedent that you set ,are we going to go ahead and debate this leaked report. “ ?
My cartoons are being exhibited by the Freedom Cartoonists Foundation under the theme of ‘Cartoons for Freedom’ at the shores of Lake Geneva (Quai Wilson) alongside those of Safaa Odah, a Palestinian cartoonist, and of a few others from Europe. If you are there, pass by to check. The Exhibition will last the whole month of May.
So abducting citizens for them to never be seen ever again is not quenching their thirst for human blood. They will now show up behind you in traffic and the moment you don’t give way, you’ll be the next sacrifice!
We’re in A net-A-nita Among bad times!
Earlier today, @GodwinTOKO@PhillipKarugaba, our friend Elly and myself went to Luzira prison to visit the comrades there.@kizzabesigye1 is in much better health and back to his usual high spirits, Hajji Lutale is also in high spirits, @eddie_mutwe was the jolliest and very happy to see us, @AMufumbiro is still in a somber mood but strong, Bobi Young is asking that we don’t forget him. That we should at least push for him to appear in court. He is frustrated that he hasn’t been in Court for 2 years and nothing has changed since the Supreme Court’s decision in Jan 2025 that civilians shouldn’t be tried in military courts. Coincidentally, I received a call from Yasin Ssekitoleko in Kitalya asking about the same- their fate, since they were neither transferred to civilian courts nor continued appearing in the court martial. But they send you greetings and say the best way to support them is to keep fighting for a better Uganda
70 years of defiance, dignity, and an unbreakable spine. Dr. Besigye is proof that resilience isn’t loud but rather relentless! Took this photo in 2013 as a fresher, but the lesson has aged better than time!
Happy 70th birthday to a man who never learned how to bow.
