Two leading civil society leaders and distinguished lawyers, Dr. Sarah Bireete E.D @ccgea1 and Eunice Musiime E.D @amwaafrika are the latest victims of the ongoing criminality. They have been abducted by the military and driven off to an unknown destination. These are definitely tough times, but the TOUGH PEOPLE OF UGANDA will outlive them. Uganda will be free!
First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out, because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out, because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out, because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for meโฆand there was no one left to speak for me - Martin Niemoller.
We should all be reminded that injustice only succeeds when people wait until itโs their turn to face it.
No one is safe until weโre all safe!
"They can give awards in New York, but the greatest award is the love of the Ugandan people. @HEBobiwine โ Hero of Democracy & Hero of the People. Happy Heroes Day to all real fighters! We are the change. ๐บ๐ฌ"๐#BobiWineOurHero
This beautiful and touching moment was captured by the NUP media team during the campaign trail. A sick man asked his family to bring him outside after hearing that Bobi Wine would pass by the road. When he saw him, Mr. President stopped and went over to greet him โ a moment that meant so much to the family. Indeed sir your the heros to many Ugandans

Happy Heroes Day to all Ugandans that risked and continue to risk their lives by standing up against this oppressive regime. Many have died, many like Olivia continue to languish in prisons, and others live with broken limbs due to torture. Hang in there, it will all end.
Supporting @NUP_Ug is a democratic right, not a crime. Bobi Young's prolonged detention robs a family of their breadwinner and mocks our judicial system. The state must halt this constitutional overreach and free him unconditionally! #FreeBobiYoung#RuleOfLaw
