Our teams are on ground in Karamoja, where they spent the day giving out food relief to our Karimajong mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers who are starving to near death. They had to move undetected, because of the numerous roadblocks in the area.

Today, our Parliament team under the leadership of Hon. @MathiasMpuuga launched our Legislative Agenda at Parliament. This is unprecedented. Regime apologists often accuse us of not having alternative policy proposals. This agenda is one of the many proposals we have laid down

Hoima, we were forced to use a very long route & arrived towards close of campaigns. The military yet again blocked us. They've followed us to our hotel and surrounded it- heavily armed military personnel, including non-uniformed ones travelling in a numberless military vehicle!

Today, students' leaders and activists went to protest at the EU offices in Kampala, in support of the EU Parliament Resolution on the Oil Pipeline. The military violently arrested them. Ten of them are in detention. The sickening double standards, after last week "sham protests"
856
Today, Dr. Stella Nyanzi was convicted of cyber harassment! For using 'immoral words' against dictatorship, corruption and nepotism. The same courts which have severally defended and shielded the champions of these ills have no moral authority to talk about morals. #Solidarity
857
We unveiled our candidate for the Omoro County. Comrade Hon. Simon Toolit Aketcha has been in the struggle against dictatorship and misrule for many years. He's been tortured, illegally imprisoned and had his election victory grabbed in a crude manner.

Earlier today, as I returned from a radio station in Jinja, police & the military employed so much violence against peaceful citizens who gathered to wave at me. Another ardent supporter, Charles Mutyabule was knocked dead by a military vehicle in the full glare of cameras!

Congrats comrade Justus Mugenyi Kizito on your decisive victory as Guild President, Mbarara University of Science and Technology (MUST). Despite the intimidation, the students have spoken loud and clear. The people's revolution continues to grow!

Doctors arrested with highhandedness as they attempt to exercise their right to walk to Parliament to protest for better welfare. Like I always say, we shall all need to join in the fight against misrule because all of us are potential victims- ALL OF US.

Earlier today, we commissioned the National Unity Platform / #PeoplePower Kunga Mobilisation Committees at our new Headquarters at Kavule. I charged the comrades to go back to their respective districts and mobilise our people for the revolution against the military regime.

A young lady telephoned her former schoolmate for help over her detained brother. The lady was instead arrested and detained for days. The state of lawlessness!

With consternation, I've learnt of the indefinite closure of 54 Civil Society Organisations by the regime over what they claim to be "non-compliance issues". This follows raids & bank account closures all targeting pro-democracy CSOs.

I also visited our brother 'Sweet Pepsi' who was beaten terribly by soldiers. Such an innocent man whose only crime was expressing his joy at my return! Together, we prayed that our nation sees better days in our lifetime.
We shall overcome.

What a man! What a record! Hearty congratulations @joshuacheptege1 on setting a new 5000m world record, at the Monaco Diamond League. Uganda is proud of you. You have proven yet again that if you work hard with resilience, there is nothing you cannot achieve.
866
We thank God that comrade Nabagabe Flavia Kalule is getting better by the day. She has been unwell for some time but she's now much stronger and we are hopeful that she will soon be back to the frontline. @BarbieItungoK and I pray for her quick recovery.

This weekend, President Museveni's young brother Geoffrey Ayine aka Sodo, who is running for MP, held a big campaign meeting under the watch and guard of police & the military! The same regime has the audacity to tell us about a scientific election. Our nation needs REDEMPTION
868
No wonder some of our hospitals have long turned into death traps for M7's opponents! Imagine being rushed to hospital and put in the hands of one of those so called doctors.
869
The military court today refused to grant bail to a group of 32 @NUP_Ug supporters who were picked up in 2020 and early 2021. In detention close to 2 years for supporting me and NUP! The trial has not even started! Overcome by anger, the relatives gathered outside court and wept!

Super excited to see this song #UgandaIsBleeding from #MaikoZulu, a celebrated Zambian reggae musician and human rights activist. He makes a very important call for the world to stop funding dictatorships which delight in imprisonment, torture and murder. youtu.be/urxB9u_OT9A

Museveni built his hate campaign against Amin and Obote accusing them of tribalism, sectarianism and nepotism. Since then, he accuses all his challengers of the same vices. Yet, he practices them OPENLY. When we call him out, a small clique of beneficiaries get uncomfortable. 1/2

Earlier today, we went to Kigo Government prison to check on our detained MPs, Ssegirinya Muhammad and Allan Ssewanyana. We found them in high spirits although sickly and frail after they were violently arrested and tortured. We continue to demand for their unconditional release.

Dropping #TuliyambalaEngule shortly. So If you think 2018 has been a serious year, fasten your seatbelts for 2019.

Yusuf Kiggundu is our latest supporter to be abducted. He was violently picked up yesterday 9:00am from Luwero by four armed men moving in a drone. He was badly beaten up and bundled into a vehicle before being driven off. His whereabouts remain unknown.

Yesterday, by the time we got the terrible news about the accident involving our people, we were entering Omoro County. This is the kind of reception we received. Despite being a scarcely populated district and having arrived late, we found people waiting for us at every stop!
