NTV has produced a feature chronicling Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba's transgressions over the years, especially human rights violations.
This is heavy. Pray for the Nation Media Group. Watch.
I am devastated by what has been done to Erias Lukwago.
His abduction, torture and public humiliation are not just an attack on one man. They are an assault on the rule of law itself.
President @KagutaMuseveni , your son and army commander has repeatedly demonstrated that he is above the law. He threatened to kill @kizzabesigye1 , defied court processes, and now @EriasLukwago_ co-lead of Besigye's defence team has been brutalised.
What meaning is left in a court case when one man holds such unchecked power? What protection exists for prisoners, lawyers, judges or ordinary citizens?
The mask has slipped. The claim that Uganda is governed by law rather than by the will of 2 powerful men has become impossible to sustain.
It’s a sad day in Uganda.
Over 40 former Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA) rebels and their family members, including 23 children, arrived at Gulu Airfield in Gulu City earlier today after being repatriated from the Central African Republic (CAR). The group had renounced rebellion and defected to CAR government forces before their return to Uganda.

It’s gross to parade persons who have been subjected to torture and then gloat about it using words like ‘basement’, ‘teaching Swahili’ or informing us about how many times they have ‘urinated’ etc Torture is against all international human rights standards and against our laws.
Eye-popping events in Uganda today, where President Museveni's son and head of the defence forces has been gleefully boasting about torturing the former mayor of Kampala and opposition lawyer on X.
The outgoing Deputy Head of EU Mission in Uganda, @GuillaumEUG has made a stinging parting shot at his farewell party. “Uganda risks becoming a caricature of itself if the apparent transition question isn’t handled delicately.” That was loaded.
Ugandan security forces have arrested Erias Lukwago, a senior opposition figure and lawyer representing detained People’s Front for Freedom party leader Kizza Besigye, who is on trial for treason, the PFF said on Monday. https://t.co/mLxdFpZ0hZ
We’ll not reshare the torture images of @EriasLukwago, as to do so would be to further the interest of the folks carrying out the unlawful actions and to perpetuate his undignified and humiliating treatment.
We’ll say, though, that such actions are a daylight manifestation of the state of our country, captive to the shallow interest of a small clique to whom the law is a suggestion, rather than a command.
You humiliate the man, torture him, but you’ll never match the power of his ideas; the high moral grounds on which he stands will be a summit you will only glance from afar.
We’d demand that he be set free or taken to court through a lawful process if he has committed any crime, but i doubt you’ll heed to such calls. It is out of your grapes. So we will only ask that when you have satisfied your cheap desires, leave him alive to return to his family, cause, and country. He’ll meet and vanquish you in the arena of ideas, law, and morality.
i don’t think people are fully processing how insane this is. lewis at 41, in a brand new environment at ferrari, learning everything from scratch again, competing against a younger generation and still winning races. that’s GENERATIONAL LONGEVITY.
"Today, Lewis Hamilton does not only achieve his first win for Ferrari, but he also achieves faith's victory against doubt, and patience's win against frustration."
