“Hunger Games.” NRM throwing crumbs at Ugandans suffering from abject poverty, malnutrition, unemployment, lack of healthcare, poor infrastructure and education. After 34 years in power, our nation deserves better!! #UgandaDecides2021 #JobsNotBrownEnvelopes

For many years, you traveled to the Diaspora and spoke about how the Museveni regime brainwashes leaders at Kyankwanzi. Now you are part of the club of oppressors feasting on taxpayers’ money. This is the tragedy of the corrupt leadership that has failed to fight for the oppressed in Uganda. Wolves in sheep’s skin are just waiting to pounce.

Off we gooo…The journey to Kyankwanzi begins…

Tomorrow, we’ll present our Alternative Budget Priorities to the Nation, underscoring what we believe should be the areas of priority in the upcoming budget. We are doing this so as to paint a picture of the proper direction our Country ought to be taking. Inspite of the numerous challenges we grapple with, Ugandans deserve to know in detail the immense potential that our Country possesses. With good leadership, we are able to not just survive, but to THRIVE. #KeepingTheGovtInCheck

At some point, we have to admit that the problem with Africa is Africans themselves. Until we solve our leadership mess, we shall remain bottom feeders.

@norbertmao @NRMOnline Why won’t you relinquish the keys to the Democratic Party and stop dragging its name and legacy through the mud with your relentless ambitions and thirst for power?

I confirm that I’ll be participating in the Leaders’ Retreat for the NRM Parliamentary Caucuses from 7th – 15th April, 2026 at the National Leadership Institute (NALI), Kyankwanzi District. I thank our Sister Party @NRMOnline⁩ for the kind invitation. #TUKOPAMOJA

STATEMENT ON THE DEATH OF NAKIBUUKA IRENE FOLLOWING THE ABDUCTION AND TORTURE BY UGANDA MILITARY The National Unity Platform Diaspora Team reports the tragic death of Ms. Nakibuuka Irene, a 22-year-old Ugandan citizen whose life was cut short following human rights violations perpetrated by agents of the Ugandan state. According to credible testimony, Ms. Nakibuuka was abducted on January 15, 2026, the day of Uganda’s general elections by masked members of the Uganda military. Her abduction was linked to her open support for opposition candidate Robert Kyagulanyi Ssentamu. She was taken alongside two other young women to an undisclosed location, where they were held incommunicado. During her detention, Ms. Nakibuuka and her fellow detainees were subjected to severe forms of torture and cruel, inhuman, and degrading treatment. These acts included forced injections with unidentified substances causing sedation, prolonged physical restraint while suspended, forced nudity, and waterboarding. Such methods constitute serious violations of international human rights law, including the absolute prohibition of torture under the UN Convention Against Torture. After nearly a month in captivity, Ms. Nakibuuka was released on February 14, 2026. Upon release, she exhibited alarming medical symptoms, including persistent vomiting, facial swelling, and severe psychological distress, including insomnia consistent with trauma-related disorders. She was admitted to Mulago National Referral Hospital, where she underwent treatment for injuries sustained during her detention. Despite medical intervention, Ms. Nakibuuka did not recover. She succumbed to her injuries over the Easter weekend, marking yet another preventable death linked to state-sponsored abuse. Her death is not an isolated incident. It reflects a broader and troubling pattern of enforced disappearances, arbitrary detention, torture, and extrajudicial harm targeting civilians, particularly young people associated with opposition political activity. Numerous families across Uganda continue to search for missing relatives, while others remain detained without charge or due process. The circumstances surrounding Ms. Nakibuuka’s abduction, detention, torture, and subsequent death raise serious concerns under international human rights and humanitarian law. These include potential violations of the right to life, freedom from torture, liberty and security of person, and the right to a fair trial. The systematic nature of these allegations meet the threshold for international crimes, warranting independent investigation. The international community must not remain indifferent. Silence and inaction risk enabling further violations and eroding the fundamental principles of human dignity and justice. Nakibuuka Irene’s life mattered. Her death demands accountability.

@RichardB_Nyombi @StateDept @AsstSecStateAF @UNHumanRights @10DowningStreet @Europarl_EN @WorldBankAfrica @IMFNews @WLCongress @HEBobiwine The regime has been parading most of the victims and NUP political prisoners in court. I’m not exactly sure what you are disputing but looking at your platfrom you are a promoter of the Museveni regime, so your stance is not surprising.

I definitely dispute that she was abducted or arrested by any security agency Daniel! I know how NUP operates and at one time, we paraded accident survivors in a Nairobi conference and told the world that they were torture victims of the Uganda government. 👇 independent.co.ug/nup-on-the-spo… NUP exploits its ailing/vulnerable supporters to garner political milestone.

@RichardB_Nyombi @StateDept @AsstSecStateAF @UNHumanRights @10DowningStreet @Europarl_EN @WorldBankAfrica @IMFNews @WLCongress @HEBobiwine Do you dispute that she was abducted, tortured and jailed for a month? What were her crimes?

@Kawuma @StateDept @AsstSecStateAF @UNHumanRights @10DowningStreet @Europarl_EN @WorldBankAfrica @IMFNews @WLCongress @HEBobiwine Daniel, it is very sad that we are talking about the death of a person here but please stop misleading people!! 👇👇 x.com/i/status/20410…

She’s dead! For them it’s just politics, for another family it is a loved one gone - just because she held a different political opinion! How do you expect others to feel your pain when you are directly killing their own! Can we ever have peace where we’ve inflicted such pointless permanent pain on others? Would you pretend to be angry when such innocent people you’ve harmed and hurt celebrate your own pain?

Our patient Irene has died😭😭 @yubdenis1 and I were the other day talking about how to intervene some more but unfortunately we are too late. Thank you all that stood with her. May her soul rest in eternal peace 🙏

EASTER MESSAGE FROM THE NUP DIASPORA TEAM Dear Ugandans and Friends of Uganda, On this Easter weekend, the NUP Diaspora Team extends our warmest wishes to all Ugandans at home and across the world. May this season bring renewed hope, courage, and spiritual strength to every heart. As we commemorate this moment of sacrifice, suffering, and ultimate triumph, we stand in solidarity with all prisoners of conscience, our brothers and sisters who, unjustly deprived of their freedom, spend this holy season behind bars and away from their loved ones. Your resilience inspires a nation, and your sacrifice is not in vain. We hold you in our prayers. We also lift up those who are sick, those burdened by hardship, and every Ugandan facing silent struggles. To our diaspora family separated by distance yet united in purpose, we recognize your commitment and love for our homeland. In a special way, we pray for our President Robert Ssentamu Kyagulanyi, who was forced to seek refuge in the diaspora alongside his family under painful circumstances, following the military siege on his home and the suffering inflicted upon his loved ones. May strength, protection, and justice prevail. Easter reminds us that even in the darkest of times, hope cannot be extinguished. It is a powerful testament to the dangers of persecution, but even more so, to the courage required to overcome it. The resurrection of Christ is a timeless symbol that truth will rise, justice will prevail, and light will always conquer darkness. May this Easter ignite in all of us a renewed vision for the Uganda we aspire to, a nation grounded in freedom, dignity, unity, and justice for all. Let it lift our spirits, strengthen our resolve, and remind us that a new dawn is not only possible, but inevitable. With faith and determination, we march forward together. Best wishes, Dr. Daniel Kawuma NUP Diaspora Team Leader

Behold, He is risen!

Odonga Otto: I've read the contents of the National Sovereignty Bill 2026; actually inside of it, they just fell short of adding the name of Bobi Wine. #NextBigTalk #NBSUpdates

"If your Grandmother is sick & you are living abroad... to send her some money for hospital bills , she would be required to apply to the Minister (to be recognized as a foreign agent) in order to lawfully receive money from you in the diaspora..."- @SarahBireete simplifying how the #SovereigntyBillUG will affect our day to day lives as Ugandans. 📌 #RejectSovereigntyBill #NTVNews

Civil society is the only avenue left to sensitive the Ugandan masses. The government got rid of civic education and instead invested in propaganda which is clearly working well from comments like yours. You are not interested in learning about the law but instead trashing those educating the people about it.

@JONA_EMPOWERED @ccgea1 @ekwaroobuku @SarahBireete @ntvuganda We believe the law is bad, but the wailing from the heavily funded civic NGOs shows there's something fishy they have been doing. Why would anyone fear @GovUganda to monitor her activities if they are straight.

Museveni’s government, which murders Ugandan civilians in cold blood, is now putting on a show about how they are getting to the bottom of the recent murder of innocent children. When you desensitize the populace about human life, you create an environment of brutality. Museveni’s son bragged about killing 22 civilians in the aftermath of the elections; no investigation was done, no accountability. It’s becoming more confusing for Ugandans which lives they should mourn. Should we also mourn the deaths at the hands of the NRM regime? Or is that agaisnt the law? Why is the justice system and law enforcement silent on some killings and not others?

UGANDA-U.S. ASYLUM COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT (ACA) 🇺🇬🇺🇸 Today, Thursday 2 April 2026, a small ICE Air jet landed at Entebbe Airport in #Uganda, marking the 1st deportation flight to Uganda under the Asylum Cooperative Agreement. The government of Uganda isn’t welcoming deportees because it values human dignity. It’s doing so because foreign lives bring foreign leverage, while Ugandan lives bring no political cost to those in power. Government officials are posturing as if they will offer dignity and care to people flown in from abroad, yet millions of Ugandans live every day with state violence, corruption, and disregard. This contradiction is strategic… 1️⃣. International Image‑Laundering Uganda’s government has faced years of criticism for human rights abuses and authoritarianism. Cooperating with the U.S. on migration allows it to present itself as responsible, humane, and useful to powerful partners. Foreigners become a stage on which the regime performs “good governance”; a performance it does not extend to its own people. 2️⃣. Economic Incentives The agreement comes with development funding. For a government heavily dependent on external financing, treating deportees well is a low‑cost way to secure resources and maintain donor relationships. There is no equivalent incentive to treat Ugandan citizens with dignity. 3️⃣. Diplomatic Leverage Uganda has been under pressure from the U.S. on governance and human rights. Cooperating on deportations gives the government bargaining power and a way to soften international scrutiny. That’s transactional politics: “We help you with your migration problem; you ease up on us.” “You scratch my back; I’ll scratch yours.” 4️⃣. Authoritarian Logic In authoritarian systems, citizens are not the primary audience. The regime’s survival depends more on: • foreign governments • donors • security partnerships than on domestic approval. So the government invests in looking good abroad, not in serving its own people. 5️⃣. Election Optics Following the disputed 2026 presidential elections, the government benefits from appearing stable, internationally trusted, and cooperative. Accepting deportees becomes part of a political narrative, not a humanitarian commitment. This is the architecture of authoritarianism: compassion as performance, cruelty as practice. cc. @Smith_JeffreyT _______________________________________________ Agreement Between the Government of the United States of America and the Government of the Republic of Uganda for Cooperation in the Examination of Protection Requests || A Notice by the Homeland Security Department on 3 Sep 2025 || Published Document: 2025-16808 (90 FR 42597) || govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR…

#Uganda "Museveni once sounded like a reformist. He told the people that the problem in Africa was leaders who overstayed in power. But guess what? 40 years later, he is still in power, unwanted just like the leaders he complained about." -@HEBobiwine mg.co.za/africa/2026-04…
