Oh, I forgot to add: Dr. Olive C. Kobusingye is such a prolific writer! Probably Uganda’s best female non-fiction writer. Umeme Limited is doing its thing in my area now, but I am even angrier because I have wait longer before I continue my reading of the book!

When a government that has a near monopoly on the use of force compromises the people’s representatives, emasculates the courts of law, and then robs the people, what options do the people have?

These disasters are, but one of the signs of Uganda’s decades of social, political, economic &environmental mismanagement. A runaway population growth, destruction of forest & vegetation cover on the mountains, destruction of wetlands etc A fundamental reset is a must! 🟥

Ebola Virus Disease continues to strike at the heart of the surgical team. It is with profound sadness that we have learnt of the death of Ms. Margret Nabisubi a 58 year old Anaesthetist. Our deepest sympathies are with her family and friends. May her soul rest in peace.

A consignment of these books was impounded by Ugandan Customs 'Security' in Nov 22. The good news is that our Security operatives appear literate enough to read it. The bad news is that they have poor judgement. The Correct Line is in bookstores in Kampala, and on Amazon, etc.

Our collective despondency robs us a lot as Ugandans. And yet, through my travels I’ve found Ugandans to be some of the best brains on a cross-section of disciplines and a truly resilient people. We need some dignity and national pride

As a Generation, I unapologetically state that we've failed this man individually and collectively. He doesn't deserve us. A modern day champion of resilience, defiance and democratic rule. We're sorry Kifefe Kizza-Besigye 🥲

When I received threats in 2023, Dr Besigye reached out to me, requesting to meet me. I wondered what we were going to talk about, but eventually arranged to meet him, on a Sunday. He drove from home to town, just to meet me! And what was the meeting about? Simply encouraging me:

Segirinya right behind Dr Besigye. Note he calls for NON violent actions NOT what Muhoozi Kainerugaba has stated in his tweets and neither is the charges on Kifefe Kizza-Besigye anyway attempted murder BUT possession of a GUN in Kenya. He is safer in prison but must get medical attention

Like we did for Dr Besigye, please share this with all government officials and units under their tweets (overwhelm). Again, maybe they’re not aware of Yasin’s plight. Let’s help them know. Yasin and other Ugandans in such circumstances of oppression need our voice. Show them

Banange!!! How shall we go to our beds tonight, having witnessed this??!! Why then do we have custodians of the law on our payroll? This is very frightening.
