It was a pleasure meeting with @RepGregoryMeeks, Ranking member of the @HouseForeign and senior member of the @USHouseFSC. Our shared vision of advancing democratic principles and upholding human rights will only be achieved by holding repressive regimes accountable. @TheBlackCaucus @HouseForeignGOP @NUP_Ug

When it appears on your TL, repost for freedom of all political prisoners.





Fellow Ugandans and friends of Uganda! Two months ago, Museveni yet again usurped the will of the people of Uganda and declared himself president on gunpoint. A day later, gripped by shame and fear, the military invaded my home to harm me, but I was able to evade them and go into hiding. Over the past two months, the regime has looked for me everywhere. They have raided the homes of many colleagues and fellow leaders, mounted roadblocks and spot checks of vehicles and motorcycles, arrested and dismissed the police officers assigned to my campaign, raided our home in the village, and kept my home under siege. Well, they couldn't find me because the people of Uganda sheltered me and protected me. Today, I am announcing my brief exit from the country to handle important work. Over the next few weeks, I will engage with our friends and allies all over the world before returning to Uganda to continue the push for freedom and democracy! For now, let's remain focused and united. #FreeUgandaNow

UPDATE: Regime security operatives have raided the home of my assistant, Comrade Najja Sherif. When they found he was not around, they abducted his wife instead after she told them she did not know his whereabouts. What a cowardly regime!
