Quite disturbing that KCB Uganda chose an unnecessary violent suppression over dialogue. What is it about this controversial #EACOP project that even reputable banks like @KCBGroup would rather detain peaceful activists in their basement? Shame on you KCB Uganda #StopEACOP

Yesterday, police arrested and detained 11 environmental defenders who had gone to petition KCB Bank regarding its role in financing EACOP project We strongly condemn this on-going violation right to peaceful assembly, we also call for their immediate release World Organisation Against Torture (OMCT) EU in Uganda


Court update: 11 activists who were arrested at KCB Uganda delivering a petition to convince KCB not to fund EACOP have been remanded to Luzira until 8 May 2025. The fight is on



Uganda sits on vast critical mineral deposits essential for powering renewable energy. Comrade Gerald argues that Uganda can lead Africa's green energy transition instead of pursuing the controversial #EACOP and constantly detaining students. #StopEACOP newvisionapp.page.link/YHy1a1XZm3icTv…

The harassment & intimidation posed on youth activists whenever they come out to express themselves through peaceful protests should stop! We are youth &want our future bright ,why arrest us Uganda Police Force.we want EACOP stopped & investments done in Green economic sectors. #StopEACOP



It’s unfortunate that Government of Uganda continues to stop all avenues for freedom of expression by arresting youth whenever they come out to express themselves. Today Guild President & 9 other students from KYAMBOGO UNIVERSITY have been bailed out at a bill of 1M after being remanded for days.




BOB BARIGYE and 10 other environmental defenders have been denied bail and remanded until May 27. The activists were arrested at KCB Bank after peacefully delivering a petition opposing its investment in the EACOP fossil #stopeacop KATIITI NOAH.♔︎♔︎♔︎. KIIZA ERON Freedom Hive Uganda

Why were BOB BARIGYE and his colleagues denied bail? Peaceful protest is a constitutional right, shouldn't they be freed? Judiciary Uganda KCB Group Plc Uganda Police Force
