Here is what the criminal police did to us at our final rally in Bbaale constituency, Kayunga District. They fired projectiles of tear gas at our rally venue! Shame on the regime 😡! #FreeUgandaNow https://t.co/KFSBSqXZM2
A short while back, the criminal regime security forces fired tear gas canisters inside our rally venue without any justification. Their criminality has left several people injured. The regime is trying to push us to the wall by using provocation tactics and violence but we still insist on nonviolent resistance. We will not lose our patience while we pursue our freedom. Thanks to the people of Kayunga for sticking with us throughout the day. Your immense support means a lot to us. #ANewUgandaNow #ProtestVote2026 #PeoplePowerOurPower
Moments as we arrived in Ntenjeru for our first campaign rally. The people treated us to a warm reception even amidst the brutality that greeted us on our way to the rally venue. The regime believes that the intimidation and violence will break us, but the resilience of our people is self speaking. Thank you Kayunga! #ANewUgandaNow #ProtestVote2026 #PeoplePowerOurPower
First rally successfully concluded in Kamuli-Kangulumira, in Ntenjeru South, Kayunga District. The people have defied all odds and showed up in large numbers. Our rally has been preceded by state orchestrated violence targeting my campaign crew and supporters. We have seen several people sustain severe injuries from tear gas, rubber bullets and batons wielded by men who are supposed to be upholding law and order. We are alive to their provocative antics and we will keep refraining ourselves from falling prey for whatever preemptive violence they are planning for us. We will only assert ourselves by the ballot under our protest vote. Thank you Kayunga! #ANewUgandaNow #ProtestVote2026 #PeoplePowerOurPower
The shameless criminals in security uniform have began their usual barbaric behavior. They are using live ammunition and tear gas to try to demobilize us. They have shamelessly injured this innocent civilian whose sole crime is none other than supporting us. For how long shall these shameless people brutalize and provoke us? #FreeUgandaNow
Before setting off for Kayunga district today, we have addressed the nation on a span of grievances that we have endured in our campaign trail ever since we touched base in Buganda region. The escalating police orchestrated brutality has become a huge concern to us. On Monday, we saw the police firing teargas canisters inside our peaceful rallies with no legal justification. Their double standards are evidently disgusting. They claim to be stopping our processions yet on the side of the NRM candidates, nothing as such happens. We call out on the EC chairperson Mr. Simon Byabakama to rein in if he is really in charge of the election. He has been conspicuously silent on all the prevailing illegalities and rights violations in the electoral process. The speedy response he has shown while criticizing our protest vote should apply equally while commenting about these prevailing issues. We are shocked that Mr. Byabakama, a legal expert has come out to discourage citizens from protecting their votes and yet he is not quoting any legal provision within which he is making this illegal declaration. We as NUP, are calling for Active Citizens’ Participation (ACP) in this election because they have all rights to be engaged as voters. Under the Presidential Elections Act section 31 clause 4, citizens have a right to observe the election within 30 meters away from the tally table. This is what we have been encouraging. If Mr. Byabakama is not ready to conduct a transparent, free and fair election then we ask him to peacefully resign from the position of chairperson of the Electoral Commission. Finally, we have reliable information that Gen. Museveni and his regime are planning to rig the election. They want to achieve this by provoking the masses into an unrest and they yet again carry out a preemptive massacre prior to the actual voting akin to what they did in November 2020 (18th and 19th). We want to bring this to the attention of the international community, regional community and the African Union. We are also aware that the regime is also planning a curfew prior to the election in order to proceed with their vote rigging plans. That said, we are continuously going to remain law abiding in our pursuit for the votes and we shall reach out to all parts of the country as per our schedule. #ANewUgandaNow #ProtestVote2026 #PeoplePowerOurPower
I will be there to share our vision for a New Uganda and to challenge Dictator Museveni on whatever new lies he wants to tell the people of Uganda after 40 years of deception and failed promises. See you then! #FreeUgandaNow https://t.co/I5fN4hytny
Thank you very much Owek. Katikkiro @cpmayiga for this important message. Our nation is at crossroads - every moral voice is needed at this critical time.
