The sad thing about this is that the judiciary claims that its hands are tied. If anyone had applied for habeas corpus, judiciary would say the man went to Rome on a pilgrimage.

A wife is spending nights without her husband. Children have no idea where their father is, and you have people nursing wounds on a daily from beatings for simply having a choice. Those people can't understand the concept of peace because you haven't given them a chance.

We know they are weaponising peace to escape election accountability and silence the voices demanding for it. While everyone loves peace for this country, let the record shows that the camp that denied this country peaceful transition is the biggest enemy of peace. Selah!

@nickopiyo @SNabakooza1 @nbstv @FredEnanga1 I lost words when I read in that statement, "lawful custody". This country went to dogs a long time ago. This must be the fundamental change I grew up being told about.

@SNabakooza1 @nbstv When armed men arrested me in December 2020, the police spokesman at the time, @FredEnanga1, accused me at a press conference of being involved, among others, in subversive activities. It all turned out to be a pile of lies. There is an eerie comparison here with the case of

Uganda is approaching national elections under conditions that make any claim of democracy not merely questionable, but indefensible. The country’s principal opposition leader, @kizzabesigye1 , has been detained for over a year. A senior Justice of the Supreme Court

There's nothing lawful about UPDF's :custody" of Fr Ssekabira. They're holding him incommunicado and that's illegal. Has he been able to see his lawyer or family in the 10 days they've had him? No! Why are we holding people for longer than the stipulated hours in our law?

The updf abducts citizens and president @KagutaMuseveni is silent. He holds thanksgiving prayers at State House. 40 years ago he swore to end violence and human rights abuses by the army.
Fr. Ssekabira has been missing for 11 days now. Another priest was disappeared from the same church in 1976 never to be seen again!!

An attack on one is an attack on all. Silence is complicity. Thankful to the Masaka Diocese Archbishop Serverus Jjumba for adding a voice demanding for the missing Father Deusdedit Ssekabira who was abducted by army men recently. #FreeUgandaNow

I’ve sent 700,000 to the mother of late Otim that I received from some of you. She is grateful. Although still very devastated and hoping for justice for her son😔 I received about 640,000 and I also topped up to make it 700k. I will share a statement when I get a moment. Thank
