Tanzania High Court's ruling acquitting comrade Tundu Lissu of the politically motivated treason charges is a victory against the ultimate weapon of state intimidation. The Tanzanian regime tried to threaten him with the death penalty simply for demanding free, fair, and transparent electoral reforms but failed to prove its malicious claims because truth cannot be hidden by judicial overreach. However, the decision to convict him on the engineered, lesser charge of "incitement" and to sentence him to four years in prison is a glaring reminder of how autocrats weaponize the judiciary to silence legitimate opposition. Convicting him for his rightful defense of democracy - his call for "No Reforms, No Election" - proves that the state manufactured an offense purely to keep a powerful voice of the people locked away. From Kampala to Dar es Salaam, our struggle against generational dictatorships and electoral autocracy remains unified. A cage can restrain bodies, but it can never imprison the spirit of freedom ignited across the region. We stand with you, Chadema, and with you the great people of Tanzania, in rejecting the ongoing persecution. Aluta Continua!

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

Just received very disturbing news concerning the abrupt passing of our brother, comrade and fellow leader, Hon. Charles Matovu, who served as Member of Parliament for Busiro South in the last Parliamentary term and had his victory robbed on gunpoint in the January election. Very shocking news!May God strengthen all of us.

As the remains of His Royal Majesty, Omukama Oyo Nyimba Kabamba Iguru Rukidi IV arrive back home, we join the people of Tooro and all Ugandans in entering these nine days of solemn mourning. King Oyo was a visionary leader, a symbol of unity, and a brilliant light who led his people with grace from a tender age. He carried the crown of his Kingdom with immense dignity, humility, and grace. Many looked at him as a symbol of what young people can achieve when given the space to lead. He reigned with a quiet strength that inspired millions of young people across Uganda and the world, showing us that age is never a barrier to responsibility and service to your people. It is very painful that he did not get to exhaust his full potential. His passing at such a young age is a profound loss to our culture and the nation at large. We stand in deep solidarity with the Queen Mother, the royal family, and the entire Tooro Kingdom during this dark hour. May we use this period of reflection to honour his legacy and leadership. May God rest his soul in eternal peace, and may his ancestors receive him well. Omukama atuulize. Enkuba etutiire. Entare egwiire. Mahano muno.
