For today, I'll end with Musisi Mboowa, who was 32 at the time. He was picked up Dec 18th in Kisenyi and has never been seen again. There are many more. I shared these to highlight this: Behind the statistics are real lives suffering because of one man's greed to hold onto power.

"The Drones Are Back"- Thanks for raising awarenes, @DailyMonitor. These past three weeks, 15 of our people have been abducted by state operatives. Most are still missing. Others were brought to court days or weeks later, limping as a result of grave torture! #BringBackOurPeople

Dictators are so predictable! Gen. Museveni describes the EU Parliament as INSUFFERABLE, SHALLOW, IGNORANT, EGOCENTRIC, and some of its members as young girls who are trying to lecture him! Simply because they called him out on human rights violations related to the Oil Pipeline!
1868
By referring to Members of the EU Parliament as YOUNG GIRLS who can't lecture him, Gen. Museveni expressed how he views young people critical to his rule! If those EU MPs were Ugandans, some would be missing & others before a military court with bones broken or nails plucked out!

We have strong disagreements with the mode of deployment of our troops abroad, but we always stand in solidarity with the men and women in uniform who get deployed. Deepest condolences to the loved ones of those who lost lives. May the souls of the departed rest in peace.

Yesterday in Bukasa, Temangalo, 'security operatives' moving in the notorious drones shot two citizens! The crime of the driver was trying to overtake the drone. Incidentally, there is a section of paid NRM apologists, who continue to defend this lawlessness. WE SHALL OVERCOME!
1872
While we talk more about those abducted in drones, we shouldn't forget those who have survived being abducted and have had to run for dear lives. Hundreds of our supporters are on the run and in refugee camps in different countries. Many survived by a whisker! #BringBackOurPeople

If only they would allow one demonstration to go on against the impunity and misrule of the regime, they would see how Ugandans in millions show up. But eventually, the people will rise, and the people will win!
1874
The only time protests are allowed in Uganda is when they're sponsored & organised for the Museveni regime! Last time, it was about US sanctions on Gen. Abel Kandiho. Now, against the EU Resolution on human rights violations! All other demonstrations are broken up with impunity!

Yet another violent abduction captured on video yesterday! A man, who appears to be of Asian origin is taken away in a private vehicle. We all don't want to imagine what they did to him as soon as the car doors closed. And yet, Museveni still has the guts to criticise Idi Amin!
