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

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…

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.
