What a rousing reception into Busia today! The PEOPLE OF UGANDA are speaking. I hope dictator Museveni and his cronies are listening! #TheRevolutionIsOn #NUPCountryWideTour https://t.co/RNnqbWGvDs
Earlier today, I addressed the nation on matters of the struggle including: 1. 𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐰𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐌𝐨𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐓𝐨𝐮𝐫. Starting next week, we shall be travelling across the country to establish party offices and meet with party leaders, members and supporters. Our first stop will be Mbarara District, where we shall be on Monday 28th August to open our offices there. We shall thereafter interact with party members and supporters at Global High School Playground. In due course, we shall share a detailed program of the tour. We have already complied with all legal requirements and notified the relevant district authorities. 2. 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐃𝐢𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐚. I just returned from the United States where I have spent the past several days engaged in a number of activities intended to further isolate, weaken and dislodge dictator Museveni. Among others, I attended the official launch of the documentary film, “Bobi Wine: the People’s President”. The documentary exposes dictator Museveni for what he truly is: a murderous tyrant that has no regard democracy, human life or dignity. It will soon be available for viewing on Netflix, the National Geographic, and other online channels. In addition to the documentary premiere, I also attended the NUP Diaspora Convention organized by freedom fighters based in USA. We used the opportunity to interact with each other and renew our commitment towards bringing to its logical conclusion the struggle for freedom in Uganda. I was particularly delighted to learn from the comrades of the considerable diplomatic progress we have made in persuading the American government to revise its policy towards Uganda. For far too long, the western world has been the wind beneath the wings of dictator Museveni’s brutal reign. It is about time that that dark chapter in our history ended. 3. 𝐈𝐧𝐟𝐢𝐥𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐎𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧. We are keenly following the scandals unravelling in sister political parties. Evidently, dictator Museveni is busy at work trying to purchase more opposition parties as he did with especially UPC and DP whose leaders he compromised to work for him. Even in NUP, a few of our leaders have already exposed themselves in public. These are just some of the self-serving individuals who join us for purposes of manipulating the connection we have with the people to secure positions for themselves in Parliament and elsewhere. To compound this, some media houses have been hired by the regime to sell the false narrative we have a rift in NUP. Nevertheless, I am confident of the oppressed people’s ability to know how to handle those who enable and profit from their misery. No matter what he does and how many opposition politicians or parties he buys off, dictator Museveni should know that he will never buy off the desire for change in the hearts of the people of Uganda. Ugandans want to be free from him. They will be free!
The man who has manipulated our Constitution and elections several times to remain in power while claiming that it's 'the people' don't want him to go away is the same man now acting like a fugitive, 'protecting' himself from the same people he claims to love him. Tozanyisa obudde!

Yesterday, I addressed Ugandans living in the diaspora at the 3rd NUP Diaspora Convention of USA that is currently underway in Washington DC. I appreciated our diaspora comrades for generously funding the Convention and supporting activities of the struggle back home, contrary to the regime's false claims that we are backed by foreigners. I also acknowledged their dedication to the struggle and emphasised the vital role they play in maintaining momentum, advocating for change worldwide, and exposing the atrocities of the Museveni regime. Besides uniting comrades, the main purpose of this convention is to quicken the end of Museveni's dictatorship. Once that is done, we shall embark on building a new, free and prosperous Uganda that guarantees equal service and opportunity to all citizens. The duty to redeem Uganda ultimately rests with us, its citizens, and not anyone else. I concluded by rallying our comrades in the diaspora to renew their commitment to the cause, and urged them to continue taking all necessary action to free Uganda.
Five years ago today during the Arua Municipality by-election, dictator Museveni’s guards shot dead our brother comrade Yasin Kawuma in a failed attempt on my life. He was first of the many martyrs that our struggle against Museveni's misrule has registered along the way. We continue doing our best to support his family, and to push forward with the struggle as that is the only way to ensure that his death was never in vain. May his soul, like the rest of our fallen comrades, keep resting well. #WeAreRemovingaDictator
Do not be loyal to any political party or to any individual, not even me. Just loyal to the truth. Be real! https://t.co/dHmmRdqys1
Special Screening and Q&A for the film documentary BOBI WINE: THE PEOPLE’S PRESIDENT happening in New York and Los Angeles. See you later tonight and tomorrow night! https://t.co/QWFJhXz9YF
Last night at the Central Park in New York City, our documentary film 'BOBI WINE: THE PEOPLE’S PRESIDENT' premiered. I had so much fun performing for the crowd who turned up for the occasion. Thank you @natgeodocs for amplifying our voices through film. #PeoplePowerOurPower https://t.co/4IGFLOK8ER
Last night, my family and I had the honour and pleasure of attending the premier of our documentary, 'BOBI WINE: THE PEOPLE'S PRESIDENT' in Los Angeles alongside a packed audience of freedom-lovers from around the world. The documentary captures the brutality that unfolded around us the moment we began challenging dictator Museveni’s regime. This weekend, we are proceeding to theatres in New York City for the grand premier. Photo credit: @natgeodocs
The abductions persist, this time with comrade Kalyowa Ivan Kayiwa being one of the latest victims. On the night of 15th July, Kayiwa was abducted from his workplace by military officers travelling in a UPDF truck. He has not been seen or heard from since then. We continue to condemn this abuse of citizens' rights, and the regime's use of security agencies in persecuting its opponents! As the case should be with other victims, we demand that comrade Kayiwa be released immediately or subjected to the due process of the law if he committed any offence.
This song titled ‘Everything is gonna be Fine’ is a soundtrack to Our Documentary Film ‘Bobi Wine The People’s President’ which is set for release to theatres world wide on 27th July 2023. Below is a video of the lyrics to this song and I want to dedicate it to all those who need a message of hope at a time like this. ONE DAY EVERYTHING IS GONNA BE ALRIGHT! https://t.co/ZgXSfcSsT7
We must not celebrate when the dictator succeeds in putting down another political party opposing him. Instead, we must pick lessons. Fighting a military regime is no easy task.
On Tuesday, we were very delighted to meet with some of the @NUP_Ug leaders from Busoga Sub-region. We discussed matters of great interest to the people of Busoga and of Uganda generally. I implored them to remain united and steadfast in the pursuit of our struggle for freedom and democracy.

Hundreds of Ugandans are crying out for justice. Those whose loved ones have been killed, those abducted by the criminal regime in 2019/2020 and to-date are still missing and those who've been subjected to gross torture. https://t.co/RpodWGjFbR
What a consumate lier Mr. Museveni is! He knows so well that he is still in power today because of these same crimes and even worse that he committed against the people of Uganda in 2021. Yet here he is now, claiming to care about the quality of elections! He murdered, abducted and tortured hundreds of our people. Blocked our campaigns in most areas. Threw us out of radio stations. Arrested our polling agents. Switched off the internet. Deployed the military to tick all ballot papers at many polling stations. Declared a 100% voter turnout at over 409 polling stations — including voters who had long died. Abducted people who had collected our DR Forms and up to now some are still missing. Intimidated judges of the Supreme Court, and is now persecuting Justice Esther Kisakye for ruling in our favor. And this is just a fraction of the many other electoral crimes and crimes against humanity he committed. Yet here he is now, claiming to care about the quality of elections! In the Kayunga by-election where NUP candidate Hon. Harriet Nakwedde won at all polling stations, he shamelessly declared his candidate winner and even congratulated him. Yet here he is now, claiming to care about the quality of elections! In the Omoro by-election, his thugs arrested 62 polling agents out of the 84 polling stations. They spent the night before the election bribing the poor people with little money, salt and sugar. His criminals moved all over with pre-ticked ballot papers in numberless vehicles. Yet here he is now, claiming to care about the quality of elections! In the Kasese by-election, the military took over polling stations and ticked so many ballots in favor of his candidate. RDCs were deployed to give out money and ferry imposters to participate in the voting. Yet here he is now, claiming to care about the quality of elections! In the Pallisa by-election, the NUP candidate was severely intimidated and eventually coerced into dropping out of the race. He was promised hundreds of millions of tax payers' money. He later came around crying that they had given him a condition to get a letter from our Party dropping him out of the election if he was to get his 'payment'. Yet here is Museveni now, claiming to care about the quality of elections! In the Soroti by-election, the FDC candidate won fair and square. But Museveni's thugs were not afraid to do the unthinkable. They arrested several leaders and sent them out of Soroti. They distributed pre-ticked ballot papers under the watch of Byabakama. When the citizens protested, they were quickly arrested and battered. Yet here he is now, claiming to care about the quality of elections! In Kisoro, election observers including religious leaders were assaulted. Polling agents were arrested, placed in numberless vehicles and driven away. They beat up people and went around distributing money. Yet here he is now, claiming to care about the quality of elections! Well, that is Museveni for you — a pathological liar. It is amazing how at his age he still lies with such confidence! Very, very sad!
It was a happy ending with President emeritus Lech Walesa of Poland and Prime minister emeritus Yulia Tymoshenko of Ukraine, together with other leaders. A declaration was signed aimed at making the fight for democracy easier and safer. https://t.co/lJG8Zlsd3v
Like all autocratic despots, @KagutaMuseveni survives by intimidating and eliminating his political opponents, especially those he has failed to compromise. But I am not scared. We shall never stop fighting the evil dictator, even if it means paying the ultimate price.
... the fall of dictator Museveni, no matter what political group they subscribe to. Similarly, no one is a comrade of ours whose actions and words only serve to prolong the dictator’s grip on power. #BringBackOurPeople #FreeAllPoliticalPrisoners #WeAreRemovingADictator https://t.co/eTotarLJCf
