Hunger Strike Day 3: Asio Dorothy, of @Resistance_Ug, is on Day three of her hunger strike at Luzira Maximum Security Prison after being denied mandatory bail, following 65 days in detention. She refuses to eat until justice is served鈥攏ot only for herself but for all prisoners of conscience arbitrarily detained for speaking out against the Ugandan government. Silencing dissent is not justice. Freedom is not a crime! #StarvingForJustice #FreeAsioDorothy #FreePrisonersOfConscience #JusticeForUganda

A short while ago, I spoke with our comrade Olivia Lutaaya and welcomed her back from the long period of unjustified detention. I am glad that her conviction has not been diminished by the criminal regime's persistent persecution. I assured her that the immense sacrifice she, together with other comrades, have made for a better country will never be in vain. #FreeAllPoliticalPrisonersinUganda

Leader of the Opposition @JoelSsenyonyi Ssenyonyi (Nakawa Division West, NUP) has challenged Deputy Speaker @Thomas_Tayebwa (Ruhinda North County, NRM) over remarks by Kenan Opio (Busiro County South, NRM), which he described as a threat. Addressing Parliament on 29 October 2026, Ssenyonyi said the remarks appeared in the Hansard for 27 October and questioned why Tayebwa had not called Opio to order when he was absent and unable to defend himself. Ssenyonyi said he did not attend former Busiro South MP Charles Matovu鈥檚 burial. After seeing footage of Herbert Tom Kinobere (Kibuku County, Independent) being chased away, he said he called Kinobere to express solidarity. He registered his disappointment with Tayebwa, saying the parliamentary record should have been protected.

With the help of PLU, Kenan Opio secured the nerve agent poison which was served to NUP鈥檚 Hon. Matovu Charles. The poison was administered by a masked state operative whom the Honorable discovered and exposed in a TikTok video released three days ago. Kenan Opio is a member of the First Family who returned from Kitgum District where he had adopted a camouflage name Opio but he is originally called Harerimana Kenan. His uncle also Entebbe Mayor Fabrice Rulinda (sponsor of M23 in DRC) guaranteed him that he will be declared MP for Busiro South #KlaUpdates

Leader of the Opposition Joel Ssenyonyi has urged NRM members and government officials not to label senior party members, including Older Persons MP for Eastern Uganda, Ofwono Opondo, as disloyal for speaking out on alleged abductions in the country. Ssenyonyi called for open discussion of public concerns, saying leaders should be free to raise issues of national interest without their loyalty being questioned. #NTVNews

Joining the rest of well-meaning Ugandans to demand for the urgent release of Counsel Erias Lukwago, whom we understand was today rushed from jail to Mulago Hospital in very critical condition. We owe ourselves a country where no amount of political disagreement is greater than citizens' right to life and human dignity; a country where no citizen is subjected to sham judicial processes just because they oppose those in power! #FreeEriasLukwago #FreeAllPoliticalPrisoners
