  2. Those are propaganda of nup hooligans, Uganda is a mong peaceful country in the whole world and we still need & love our president Museven.

  5. Uganda needs an international voice and it's matters given due attention that it deserves. That old man is out of control, he kills them at his own will using his son's allied SFC (special forces command). The west groomed a lethal dictator whose interests will cost a million lives if need be. The current demonstrations are a success because of the NAM summit but if it was any other normal day, we would be counting numbers killed. Sad!

  8. #Bobiwine needs to locked up In prison. It's truly astounding how you fail to comprehend the basic moral principle that blocking public roads is unequivocally wrong. Your apparent struggle with such straightforward moral clarity is quite remarkable. And if, in your misguided belief that the government is wrong, you choose to obstruct the movement of less fortunate individuals from point A to point B, well, congratulations on achieving a level of authoritarianism you seem to admire.

  14. Report for France not for Uganda , mind your own problems , french people are always on streets demonstrating poor government policies , it's more than enough for the french media to mind but not Uganda

  15. The military regime is bent at nothing to keep the citizens captive. Stepping at all the rights of the people. It’s main purpose is to keep power at whatever expense. #FreeUganda

  19. The only hope we have in Uganda and Africa is Bobi wine but the regime in power wants to finish him because they own guns 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️
