#UnpopularOpinion #597. Police officers. Thank you for doing a good but challenging job in this country. I know the force wants to deliver a peaceful election season. That’s what the IGP promised Ugandans & that’s what the law demands of you. As you do this, remember, that there’re no heroes in causing death, suffering, harm, damage, to the people of Uganda & irreparable damage to property & the reputation of government. If any individual officer thinks that someone somewhere is proud of their unlawful actions & abuse of human rights, then they’re deceiving themselves. He/she will be the first to call for action against you. You will be isolated & charged before the courts of law. Treat people as per the law & remain resolute to what the law prescribes. Stop tearing candidates posters. Stop drawing guns & threatening to shoot people. Guns are given to you to protect yourself & citizens from looming danger of criminal elements. You are not the criminal element. Your job is to protect the people, their rights & property. When you treat them according to the law, they will respect & support your actions. The reverse is true. You came from the community. You will go back to the community when you retire. The community will treat you the way you treated them. May God bless you as you strive to deliver a peaceful election season in this country. @PoliceUg
