For the full speech: Better sound quality too youtu.be/x5_JwYf2eWM?si=KAqF…
A man claims he wants to govern as a president but he is not ready to listen to dissenting voices. @JudiciaryUG has clearly failed to protect Ugandans from the illegality that is the cabbage and pilau (PLU). His lawlessness has gone unchecked by those who are institutional supposed to check him. @KagutaMuseveni endorses the abductions, the tortures and impunity. Its our duty as Ugandans to end this madness and finish the cabbages. #FreeSamMugumya #FreeAllPoliticalPrisonersinUganda

Earlier today, we delivered a powerful motivational presentation on the current question of political succession in Uganda - a succession which we, the youth, fundamentally object to. We made it clear: Uganda is at a crossroads. On one side stand the oppressors - those who believe power is property to be inherited, preserved and privatized. On the other side stand the oppressed the ordinary youth, the unemployed graduate, the farmer, the boda rider, the young mother who believes power belongs to the people under Article 1 of the Constitution. Today, we launched not a war of guns, but a war of ideas. A struggle between impunity and accountability. Between dynasty and democracy. We the oppressed, have made a commitment: we will liberate this country from dictatorship not with violence, but with the Constitution, with our voices, with our votes and with our unbreakable unity. We object to a succession that is being shaped behind closed doors. We object to a succession that tells a young Ugandan that his future depends on his surname, not his merit. We object to a succession that violates Article 21 on equality and Article 209 on a non-partisan army. To the oppressors we say: You cannot inherit Uganda. Uganda belongs to 45 million Ugandans. To the oppressed we say: Your time is now. History has never waited for permission to change. From Accra to Lusaka, from Nairobi to Kampala, every generation that was told to wait has risen and claimed its rightful place at the table. This is not a fight for one party, or one leader. It is a fight for a system where a son of a peasant and a son of a President have the same chance to lead, decided only by the people. We are committed. We are organized. We are non-violent, but we are unshakeable. We will not be silenced, we will not be bought and we will not back down until power truly belongs to the people. The struggle for constitutional succession has begun. And the youth will win it. For God and My Country.

Our legal team is at the Kajjansi Court following up on the matter of our 20 supporters who were picked up from boda-Bodas and taxis after the burial of Hon. Charles Matovu. We understand that they are likely to be charged with common nuisance yet ironically they were mourners picked from public transport means and arrested on suspicion. Fortunately, the earlier charge of assault and deflating car tyres could not stand as there was no evidence to back it up. #FreeAllPoliticalPrisoners

Comrade Olivia Lutaaya has finally reunited with us after braving nearly a full year under detention on trumped up charges of unlawful drilling since her arrest from Mbarara on November 7th, 2025. Lest we forget, she had again spent close to 5 years under detention by the military court between 2021-2024, a heavy price she has paid for her conviction for freedom. #FreeAllPoliticalPrisoners

Very pleased to welcome back comrade Olivia Lutaaya from detention. Olivia has paid such a heavy price for simply believing that Uganda deserves better. Out of the 6 years of @NUP_Ug, she has spent 5 years in detention at various times over trumped up charges. Despite the grave persecution she has endured, she is still committed to what she believes in. Welcome back comrade! Uganda will be free.

Opposition National Unity Platform (@NUP_Ug) supporter Olivia Lutaaya has been released from Luzira Women's Prison today, October 30, 2026, after spending much of the past five years in detention. Authorities first arrested Lutaaya in May 2021 and charged her with treachery and unlawful possession of ammunition. After approximately 40 months in detention, she pleaded guilty in October 2024. President Museveni subsequently pardoned her and 18 other NUP supporters in November 2024. Authorities arrested her again in November 2025 in Mbarara alongside other NUP supporters and charged them in connection with alleged unlawful military-style training at NUP headquarters and remanded her to prison. Her case reflects a wider pattern of political detainees pleading guilty or accepting plea bargains after prolonged incarceration. The cases also raise serious questions about prolonged pretrial detention, access to bail and the pressure that incarceration places on accused persons to plead guilty to regain their freedom. Other political detainees, including Doreen Kaija, who have rejected the plea-bargain route and continue to pursue their cases through the courts and remain in prison without bail. #FreeAllPoliticalPrisonersUg

WATCH: Proceedings at the Wakiso High Court took an unexpected turn when NRM petitioner Abdul Kiyimba told court that he could not speak English, before giving contradictory responses about his academic qualifications. Kiyimba, who is challenging Emmanuel Magoola’s victory in the Busiro East parliamentary election, surprised presiding judge Justice George Okello when he requested to testify in Luganda, despite claiming to have completed Senior Six. #MonitorUpdates πŸ“Ή: Teddy Nakaliga

We warmly welcome back Olivia Lutaaya, a mother of two and staunch supporter of @NUP_Ug, who has endured yet another painful period of detention without a conclusive trial. Since 2020, Olivia has been arrested and detained on three separate occasions, spending a combined total of approximately 5 years in detention without trial, alongside other comrades. Her first arrest came in December 2020, when she was arrested alongside the rest of the campaign team of President @HEBobiwine in Kalangala and held for several months without trial before being granted bail by a military court. Her most recent arrest was in November 2025, when she was charged over alleged illegal military drills at Makerere-Kavule. Today, we welcome her back with open arms. Olivia's resilience in the face of repeated persecution is a testament to her courage and commitment to the struggle for freedom and justice. We stand with her, we honour her sacrifice, and we assure her that her suffering will not be in vain. Welcome back, Olivia. Your courage will never be forgotten.

Violently abducted. Slapped with fabricated charges. Detained without trial. Robbed of a clear electoral victory. Denied bail to attend to his sick wife. Denied bail to bury his wife when she passed. His Election Petition dismissed. How much must one man endure for daring to disagree with a regime? Stay strong, brother. One day, everything will be alright.

Yesterday at Princeton University, I had the honor of addressing some of the University's students and faculty about the place of Africa and Africans in the world, using Uganda as a case study. The overarching theme of my address, especially as Uganda just celebrated its 64th independence, was that Africa cannot be sovereign while Africans remain captive. It cannot be powerful while it's people remain powerless. Ugandans – Africans, really – MUST have a genuine opportunity to choose their leaders through credible democratic processes whose final outcome reflects their true will. Africans can’t truly exercise their sovereignty if they have no meaningful influence over the decisions that shape their life and future. But even beyond elections, Africans must still have the freedom to criticise their leaders and influence public decisions. Otherwise, democracy becomes a sham periodic exercise in which Africans temporarily participate in selecting their their next captors. Although Africa need not blindly imitate institutions of other societies without considering our own circumstances, it must develop democratic institutions that are legitimate and responsive to the people they serve. Africa must build States strong enough to govern effectively, but not so powerful that their own citizens become helpless before them. Those States, in turn, must then protect their sovereignty but without conveniently invoking it to insulate their ruling governments from being accountable to the citizens. Any legislation that African States enact to protect their sovereignty should be strictly tailored towards protecting the ability of their people to determine their own future without illegitimate foreign interference. It goes without saying that the rest of the world's interactions with Africa should ultimately be to support these objectives, otherwise Africans will keep bleeding on the rest of the world.
