Just survived an assault in Kawempe. Masked UPDF soldiers come at me moments after he tried to beat with that long wire before he came off the motorbike. My crime? Doing my work as a journalist. They were followed by a ‘drone’ vehicle, that’s been arresting journalists. @nbstv

"Whenever the govt has bothered to compensate families that lose loved ones to some tragedy, the average rate is about UGX5M. The fact that govt attaches a negligible $1K to the value of Ugandan life tells you why they don’t care whether and how you die." ~ @Rukwengye
63 Ugandans die in an instant and normalcy continues. Do Ugandans’ lives matter?
