In a country with a serious government, these three individuals @AAgather, @SpireJim and @GodwinTOKO would be awarded national honours for opening the lid and blowing the whistle on the grand corruption that was taking place in Parliament. I can't help but remember the kind of vitriol they received from regime apologists for releasing details of shocking transactions of billions landing on personal accounts. At the highest level, they were branded traitors and agents of foreigners.
Today, the same facts they revealed are stated in court documents. Even when the regime continues to harass them for their work, this moment provides all of us a lesson that when you remain consistent at doing the right thing, you'll most certainly be vindicated at the right time.
Miria Matembe started where she ended....
President museveni should come out and tell us if he is still the president, if he is should put an end to his son. Stop him from speaking again.
If he gave up power to his son, we also know and we chase them away both.
Fearless.
Relieved to learn that Hon. Miria Matembe has been granted bail following her abduction last week. It remains a shame that Matembe, a 73-year-old grandmother with an unblemished record of public service, had to suffer this ordeal in the first place!
Remember, Matembe was subjected to this ordeal because she bruised the fragile ego of Muhoozi Kainerugaba -- the dictator's infantile son -- when she criticized him. It really takes special cowardice for an army commander approaching 60 years of old age to flex State power on a defenceless grandmother whose courage he can never match in 100 lifetimes.
More shameful, the regime that practices sectarianism openly charged Matembe with "Promoting Sectarianism."
Imagine the very regime that breathes and practises sectarianism, claiming the moral authority to prosecute those who expose its sectarianism!
We shall have to unite and find a lasting solution for these blood-thirsty tyrants!
This was Hon. Miria Matembe pleading with the Magistrate to allow her to go for treatment for her back. "At least Amin used to shoot you, po! But this kind of breaking......." She said.
For context, this senior citizen was one of the eminent Ugandans who traversed this country seeking views on the 1995 Constitution! As I saw her crying out, I couldn't help but imagine what was going on in her mind. Mulimba mutufuze bubi nnyo!

The offices remain under military siege following an order by President Museveni's son and military chief Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba to shut down Nation Media Group (NMG) Uganda outlets.
A similar siege has been reported at the NTV and Spark TV broadcast centre at Serena Hotel since around 12am on Sunday, where military officials have since taken the stations off air.
Other affected outlets include Dembe FM, KFM, and The East African, all under NMG.

Following an order by military chief Muhoozi Kainerugaba, Nation Media Group (NMG) outlets, including NTV, Spark TV, Daily Monitor, KFM, Dembe FM, and The East African, among others, were ordered shut down in a crackdown during the early hours of Sunday, as tensions escalated around one of Uganda's most influential media houses.

We should find and post @ntvuganda content about the misdeeds of the NRM government (especially the Armed Forces) everyday until they reopen.

#FreeAllPoliticalPrisoners #FreeUgandaNow
Museveni’s criminal son, acting with his father’s full approval, has moved to silence Uganda’s remaining independent voices by shutting down @NTVUganda, @DailyMonitor, @DembeFM, and @SparkTV.
This is the hash reality we now face, a country under open military rule, where fear replaces law and force replaces accountability.
But history is clear. Dictators always escalate repression towards their fall, pressing every button in desperation, until they press the one they never expected to be their last.
Uganda will be free!
Dear Maama Miria Matembe,
I stand with you in this dark and painful moment.
The harassment you and other women are facing from a childish coward masquerading as a general does not diminish your courage or dignity, it only exposes his weakness and moral bankruptcy.
The world is watching, and one day he will be held to account for his atrocities against the people of Uganda.
God be with you Maama.
