Rightly so, this Country is governed by #WeThePeople , the decision of the Judges therefore shouldn’t be in your interest but in the interest of the people. #WeThePeople also know that it is our duty to do anything to protect and defend the constitution and defend it we shall!
Fellow Ugandans, especially the Bazzukulu. Greetings. I was sorry to hear of the wrong decision by the Supreme Court in the matter of the fire-arms armed civilians being tried by the Military Court Martial. This is a method which we the freedom fighters support because it reinforces the Civilian Judicial System to defend the lives of our People against Criminals armed with guns. If you are not a soldier, why do you arm yourself with guns and, moreover, for criminal purposes and illegally, that are a monopoly of the Armed Forces? Below is my full response on the issue of the General Court Martial.

“I would accordingly propose the following orders. All charges, or ongoing criminal trials, or pending trials, before the courts martial involving civilians must immediately cease and be transferred to the ordinary courts of law with competent jurisdiction.” @ac_owinydollo

“The people of Uganda pronounced themselves in the course of the making of the 1995 Constitution, expressing their fervent desire to make a break from the ugly past that characterized life in our country; especially the grave abuse of human rights by the military.”@ac_owinydollo

“Our constitution was put in place to ensure a free and just society..accused persons should be tried before competent courts capable of guaranteeing a fair trial and the General Court Martial is incapable of according a fair trial.” Justice Elizabeth Musoke

The trail of civilians in the military court martial has been an injustice entrenched by the Supreme Court and like Dr. @bkabumba has consistently said, eyes are on the @JudiciaryUG with hope that they correct this wrong! Justice should and we hope it shall prevail.

Last week Parliament approved a Supplementary Budget of Shs53.119Bn towards construction of Lubowa Hospital. The hospital has been under construction since 2019 and its completion date is pushed over and over again.This and more is what we have to show 39 years after ‘liberation’

Liberation? #WeThePeople recall our history. And these #39YearsofDictatorship have not been any different from that which they claim to have liberated us from. Gross human rights violations. Poor service delivery. Impunity. Corruption. And worse! So what were we liberated from?

36,520 people on remand is a worrying number! Some of these people are in prisons for years with no trial. The numbers are overwhelming and yet still, the state will still arrest and remand more over things like protesting. #SpotlightOnPrisonsUg

and to do all in their power to restore this Constitution after it has been suspended, overthrown, abrogated or amended contrary to its provisions” This therefore is a reminder of our duty as Ugandans to rise to the occasion to protect and defend our Constitution!

It has now become a habit to treat social justice activists and human rights defenders as enemies of the state, even from premises of the place that ought to be the fountain of justice. We demand for the immediate release of @AAgather and @samson_kiirya ! #FreeAgather
#FreeSam
Earlier today, We went to the Supreme Court to submit a petition. However, we were instructed to limit our representation to two individuals. @AAgather & @samson_kiirya entered the premises but were abruptly and violently arrested and we saw them being taken away. #EndImpunity
