In this stirring video, a mother asks how a regime that brutalised her during the January 2026 elections for simply holding the Ugandan flag can now claim the moral authority to forcefully send her S6-leaver child to Kyankwanzi for “patriotism” training!
Having come to the realization that citizens are now politically awake, the Museveni dictatorship is now trying to indoctrinate our unsuspecting children. WE MUST NOT ALLOW IT!
Dear Daughter,
One paradoxical thing about me and being a father is that my greatest hope is also one of my greatest fears.
I hope to see my children grow, spread their wings and fly freely into the world. At the same time, I fear for them as they fly into a world that can sometimes be so unkind.
As you grow older, my girl, I pray that you will be safe wherever life takes you and that you will find favor, love and happiness.
And no matter how big you grow and how many years pass, you will always be my little girl.
Happy birthday, my dearest Shalom Namagembe Nalunkuuma. ❤️
Taata loves you beyond words, beyond time, and beyond measure.
What this leaked video of a soldier checking Hon. Muwanga Kivumbi's blood pressure while under incomunicado detention proves is how institutionalised the system of torture in Uganda is. All comrades who have been to those torture chambers will tell you that after being brutalised, the system then sends in other soldiers who claim to be medical doctors to check on you and determine whether you're medically fit to take in more beatings! They torture you, treat you and torture you again! At times these 'doctors' come in when victims are about to be released or taken to court. In such cases they inject victims with unknown substances to quickly reduce swellings before victims appear in public. Then there are those whom they send to speak to victims and convince them to abandon the struggle. At times such operatives are also detained so that they come in as your fellow captives, but the mission is to compromise some unsuspecting persons.
In all, I am glad that the stories so many Ugandans have narrated in the past are now getting backed by video evidence. I encourage all patriotic Ugandans to continue using their cameras to expose the madness, the crimes, the rot. There will be accountability for the crimes being committed against our people!
@ntvuganda@abubakerlubowa Just watch the body language of the woman in red wearing glasses she cant contain the lies, deep inside she knows the truth but she nothing to do, how do even these monsters sleep?
NUP DIASPORA CALLS FOR INTERNATIONAL INVESTIGATIONS AND SANCTIONS FOLLOWING LIEUTENANT HERBERT MATANDA’S REVELATIONS AND FOOTAGE OF MUHOOZI’S TORTURE FACILITIES IN UGANDA
Washington, D.C. — October 1, 2026
The National Unity Platform (NUP) Diaspora is calling for an urgent, independent, and international investigation following the explosive revelations by Lieutenant Herbert Matanda Mabonga, who identifies himself as a former Ugandan military-intelligence officer and has come forward with secret detention, torture, enforced disappearances, and other grave abuses carried out within Uganda’s security apparatus.
The testimony and materials attributed to Lt. Matanda demand the immediate attention of the Ugandan people, the international community, and relevant accountability institutions.
For decades, Ugandans have reported a disturbing pattern of abductions, secret detention, torture, enforced disappearances, and political repression. Opposition supporters, activists, journalists, lawyers, academics, and government critics have repeatedly disappeared or been detained under circumstances that have raised serious human-rights concerns.
What makes the latest revelations particularly significant is the source. According to his public testimony, Lt. Matanda served within Uganda’s military-intelligence establishment and is presenting firsthand knowledge of secret detention facilities and the treatment of detainees inside them. He has also released recorded footage and other materials that he presents as documentary evidence.
Documents and records circulating publicly in connection with Lt. Matanda’s revelations reportedly contain names of individuals processed or held at a detention facility in the Abayita Ababiri area along the Entebbe Road.
The names cited include Rwangomani Amos, identified as a brother of Hon. Kahinda Otafiire; Sam Mugumya; Bob Njagi; Nicholas Oyoo; Raymond Asiku; Father Deusdedit Ssekabira; John Mary Ssebuwufu; Bright Muhumuza; Deputy President Lina Zedriga; Deputy President Jolly Jacklyn Tukamushaba; Fauzia Natabi; Gideon Tugume; Agathar Naziwa, also known as “Blue Tick”; Hon. Miria Matembe; Christopher Zale; Deputy President Muwanga Kivumbi; and others.
The United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom, Canada and other international partners have been financing Uganda’s brutal regime for 40 years and should review and terminate their security and bilateral relationships with Uganda in light of the ongoing crimes against humanity.
The National Unity Platform Diaspora USA also recognizes the courage of Lt. Herbert Matanda Mabonga by coming forward. We commend the principle behind whistleblowing: that loyalty to a nation must never be confused with obedience to unlawful conduct. A soldier's duty is ultimately to the Constitution and the people not to torture, disappearance or political repression.
We call upon Ugandans to resist the Museveni regime, remain vigilant, document abuses, support victims and families of the disappeared, and insist upon their constitutional rights. And we call upon the international community to understand the gravity of this moment and stop knowingly or unknowingly financing the oppression of the Ugandan people.
The National Unity Platform Diaspora will continue to stand with victims of political repression, families of the disappeared, human-rights defenders, journalists, lawyers, whistleblowers and all Ugandans seeking a country in which no citizen is above the law. Museveni, Muhoozi and those who execute their illegal orders must face the full extent of the law.
Dr. Daniel Kawuma
NUP Diaspora Team Leader
Thanks to Lt. Mabonga Herbert Matanda, we now have copies of documents detailing entries of Ugandans and non-Ugandans at the torture chamber located at Abayita Ababiri, along Entebbe Road. As you can see, the entries show some of the people who were abducted and attracted considerable uproar, but it also includes many people who most of us don't know about.
The documents detail the booking into the 'safe house' of Rwangomani Amos (Hon. Kahinda Otafiire brother), Mugumya Sam, Bob Njagi and Oyoo Nicholas (our Kenyan brothers), Asiku Raymond, Father Ssekabira Deusdedit, Ssebuwufu John Mary, Muhumuza Bright, Deputy President Lina Zedriga, Deputy President Jolly Jacklyn Tukamushaba, Fauzia Natabi (comrade Najja Sherif's wife), Gideon Tugume, Naziwa Agathar aka Blue Tick, Hon. Miria Matembe, Zale Christopher, Deputy President Muwanga Kivumbi, etc.
Comrades, what just happened is evidence that we're on the course to victory. Who knew that the people of Uganda would have a sneak peek into one of the torture chambers operated by Museveni and his criminal son?!
After a combined eight months in prison on politically motivated charges, our Deputy President Hon. Muwanga Kivumbi has finally regained his freedom. We welcome him home, and salute every comrade who stood by him and his family through those difficult months. We remain confident that the people of Uganda will have the last word on the destiny of our country notwithstanding whatever attempts the regime makes to silence their voice!
