Here is the Full version of our New Year revolutionary Address that highlights a wide range of issues and our journey so far trekked through the campaign trail! #ANewUgandaNow #ProtestVote2026 #PeoplePower https://t.co/WALzogN0xo
Delivered our New Year Address a few moments ago at the National Unity Platform headquaters in Makerere-Kavule. I focused on the oppression we endured last year for opposing the 40-year Museveni dictatorship and what measures citizens must urgently take to protect themselves from suffering more of the same, including laying down some of the actions we must take to protect the people's victory during the coming general elections. I also specifically spoke on the issue of the Uganda Flag that has now become synonymous with our #ProtestVote2026 campaign trail and a symbol of resistance for those fighting for a Free Uganda. I have strongly urged all citizens of good conscience who may see any person being attacked by anybody for carrying the Flag to rush to the defence of that victim using any proportionate means available to them. Our struggle remains non-violent, but there is no dignity in taking an unfair beating lying down if we can defend ourselves against it. In any case, the Constitution of Uganda - that document that streamlines how a State should relate with its subjects - permits us to take any action necessary in its defence. #AnewUgandaNow
“State institutions like the police, the military, and the Electoral Commission itself, which should protect the Constitution and the people, chose instead to serve the interests of the regime. Instead of upholding the law fairly, they chose to selectively apply it against the people asking for a better country. We condemn in the strongest terms any attempt by these institutions to abandon their legal mandates and hide behind “guidelines” or directives that are outside the law. No individual or institution has the authority to override our Constitution. When the Electoral Commission, Police, or any other institution issues guidelines that contradict the law, we must firmly reject those guidelines for being illegal,” piece of my New Year address this evening #ANewUgandaNow #ProtestVote2026 #PeoplePowerOurPower
“As we remember those we lost in 2025, we must also think of the many who were abducted, tortured, disappeared, exiled, murdered, or simply threatened into silence for supporting the struggle for a New Uganda. Since he was abducted on 27th April 2025 and personally tortured to near death by dictator Museveni’s son, Eddie Mutwe remains captive in prison without treatment or trial. Machete Yasin, Ashraf Kalanzi, and many others have now spent 5 years in Kitalya, also without trial. Add to that list our Deputy Spokesperson Waiswa Mufumbiro, comrades Olivia Lutaaya, Achileo Kivumbi, Bobi Young, and others. Two years ago, on 16th November 2024, Dr. Kizza Besigye was abducted from Kenya, smuggled back into Uganda, and sent to prison where he also remains to date,” part of my New Year address this evening #ANewUgandaNow #FreeAllPoliticalPrisoners #ProtestVote2026 #PeoplePowerOurPower
