I want to salute the creatives who have joined fellow Ugandans in speaking out, mobilising and taking part in protests against corruption and misrule. Creatives (singers, comedians, media personalities, cartoonists, photographers, etc) are all a product of society and have even a bigger responsibility to speak on behalf of the people in times like these. When society raises us up and gives us a platform, the least we can do in return is to amplify their voices on issues that affect them. I salute you @Faizafabz, Sammy Okanya, @beewol, @maulanareign256, and all the others who ended up being arrested and detained for simply exercising your civic duty! While others were either remanded or released on bail, Sammy Okanya remains detained at CPS way beyond the mandatory 48 hours. Last evening, our human rights team was finally able to access him briefly and he is of strong spirit. Lawyers have been denied access to him. He is still in so much pain following the violence meted out on him. In all this, let us soldier on, driven by the certainty of victory. WE SHALL OVERCOME! #FreeUganda #StopAbuseOfPowerUg
