A member of the Israeli delegation walking around the UN hall, checking which countries had left during Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech. They could easily have reviewed the camera footage if they wanted to know who left. Walking around the hall to check seems less about gathering information and more like an attempt to intimidate.

A key prosecution witness in the case of Kizza Besigye has told the court that the guns which were reported to have been found in Kizza Besigye's hotel were planted by Kenyan police officers. Museveni pulled this with the help of William Ruto.

I'm seeing the modern generation of musicians in Uganda at the Pride Theatre, completely saturating the place with the digital-era stars: Jose Chameleone, Bebe Cool, Kusasira, Eddy Kenzo, and so many others (including the defunct Full Figure) that I cannot even count them. Nearly everybody is there. But here is the uncomfortable question I keep asking myself: where were these people when the legends who built the foundation of Ugandan music needed an industry structure that actually recognised them? Moses Matovu was not some peripheral figure. He co-founded Afrigo Band in 1975 and remained its leader for decades. And yet the modern music establishment has become increasingly intertwined with government support and political networks. In 2024, more than 100 musicians met President Museveni at State House, led by Eddy Kenzo, with Bebe Cool and Jose Chameleone among those present, while government support for the industry was explicitly discussed. So I cannot just watch everyone arrive after Matovu's death and behave as though the institutional relationship with the old generation was always this strong. There is an uncomfortable gap between celebrating a legend at his funeral and giving legends meaningful space while they are alive. And that is the fragmentation I am talking about. The industry can come together beautifully when a legend has fallen, but that does not automatically mean it had built a structure that truly carried the legend with it.

Listen, it might be a setup of killing Legendary Moses Matovu and they planted it on infidelity.

My deepest condolences to @kizzabesigye1 and his entire family on the passing on of his grandson Baby Ariho Ampa Besigye . The continued incarceration of @kizzabesigye1 on trumped up charges prevents him from being close to his family at such a time #FreeKizzaBesigye #FreeAllPoliticalPrisoners @KagutaMuseveni @mkainerugaba @JudiciaryUG
Rest with Angels Baby Righteous Ariho Ampa Besigye😭. May the good lord give comfort to the grieving parents @AdamAmpaBesigye @kizzabesigye1 and the family. This is so heavy to take! God forgive us.

It is interesting that during the attempted assassination of General Katumba Wamala, there was confusion around the role of the boda boda rider who helped get him to medical care. The record actually distinguishes between the bodyguard, Sgt. Khalid Koboyoit, who evacuated Katumba from the scene, and Hakim Kasibante, the boda boda rider who took him to Malcolm Clinic for first aid. Katumba himself publicly thanked both men. But what caught my attention was how quickly different people can begin attaching themselves to a dramatic event and positioning themselves as the person who saw, rescued, intervened or understood what happened. That is the bigger question I am interested in. Because once several people begin supplying competing versions, the public is left with more narrative than evidence. And then, as the investigation progresses, some of those early characters disappear from the evidentiary trail. Now look at the death of Moses Matovu. We have different accounts about where he had been, who was with him, how the confrontation unfolded and who actually witnessed the decisive moment. One account describes an eyewitness seeing an altercation; another describes the woman being involved and a man confronting Matovu; another local account described Matovu travelling with several people before dropping people off. Police themselves have said the exact circumstances were still being established. So I keep coming back to the same uncomfortable question: when a high-profile incident happens, why do so many people suddenly emerge to become narrative anchors? Is somebody deliberately planting these stories, or are individuals independently inserting themselves into the story because being close to a major event gives them recognition, status or credit? I am not saying which explanation is true. I am saying that when testimony keeps multiplying while the underlying evidence remains unsettled, that contradiction itself deserves scrutiny.

Got into an Uber with a fine lad behind the wheel. The radio was on, and the presenters were discussing marriage and relationships. He volunteered his experience as a married man: "My wife keeps asking me why I am not as chatty and take her out as often I used to during courtship", he says. "And what is your answer", I ask. "Well, I don't exactly tell her, but I think to myself, 'election campaigns are over, marriage is time to deliver on the manifesto'", he said. He is wise not to have told her that directly. At a minimum, he would be in the dog house for a long spell. As Kenyan a bloke as you can get.

The United Nations General Assembly will always turn Ugandan representatives into hardcore human activists, the kind that get jailed in Kampala and their bank accounts frozen for being that! Here is @jessica_alupo sounding like @AAgather yesterday, telling everyone how Uganda believes in fundamental rights, UN charter (Human Rights), and multipolar world. As she spoke, Sam Mugumya remains under military detention for over a year, young Ugandans are picked up by the military for making comments criticising the regime on TikTok, Erias Lukwago, Eddy Mutwe, Mathew Bagonza who were abducted and shirtless photos of them posted on the internet remain in jail with threats that some - like Lukwago - will never be released. Regime judges and magistrates are playing along! As for a multipolar world, Uganda wants it so badly, but cannot put up with multiparty politics at home: @HEBobiwine remains in exile in the US, Ssemujju too had to go! Besigye, Lukwago, Sam Makhoha are - literally - dying in jail. Tens of @NUP_Ug supporters are in jail for wearing the party's red beret - but yeah, we desperately want the world to be multipolar! Alupo began by saying she was reading Museveni's speech, which makes it even more interesting when the demands made on the global stage are contrasted with our local realities here in Uganda.

I think we are trying to accademise his propositions. My view is that, anyone who works in the service of a government at any level, must understand that the fundamental constituency are the people in their ordinary settings. The sum total of all done at governmental level is "improving the well-being of a citizen". Yes, this can be done at different levels. If I understood him well, he seems to suggest that understanding village developmental dynamics must be a key factor for any leader high up. He could have been overzealous and overly excited about how he colored his proposition. But, it is important to sieve the substance of his views from the procedural and academic discussions. You have seen a minister demoting an in charge on account of titles "clinical officer" and "Nurse". These and many more are a sign that majority of our leaders have no clue how the local systems work. I may not agree that everyone should start from LCI before becoming an MP because the trajectory would take decades before one can become an MP. But one thing I would accept is that an MP should be someone with practical experience at a Local government level. There is no scientific evidence to show that all who came from LGs to parliament are better legislators or those who did not are bad ones. However, there is a credible theory and basing from prominent people who headed DLGs, that they demonstrate a deeper understanding of the effects of being an MP. A DLG combines both executive function and legislative one. Perhaps, that explains their grasps. You can sample them. Lastly, you are a smart MP with indepth understanding of systems.But just a small reminder, an MP plays three distinct roles. Legislation is just one. Appropriation and oversight are the others. The last two requires an in depth understanding of governmental operations at a practical level. You have not worked in DLG. But you have immense experience in your career engagements with them. I can attest to that. Perhaps, that should be the equivalence in his submission. That's why some of us have trust in you. Not just because you are a colleague we know personally. But we are counting on your experience of the local government systems.
I hope my old friend @SolomonSerwanjj is not part of this popular yet well meaning but mistaken school of thought that fails to appreciate that Parliament is the legislative arm, while LCs are part of the executive arm of government. The two cannot be assessed using the same results framework. In the past, MPs have also involved themselves directly in service delivery activities, thereby blurring the line. An effective LC official at any level is not necessarily an effective MP, and the reverse is equally true. There must be clarity and recognition that the legislature and the executive are fundamentally different and ought to be analysed as such.

He could be spiritually driven, so forgive him because this is abnormal for such a man. At this point, we can’t question why Baby Oyo was hidden from the elders. He probably would have died before Late King Oyo himself. May God judge everyone accordingly. 🙏🙏

Chief Inspector Stephan Derrick would unravel this with utmost precision using your version. Anyways let's keep tabs on the investigations.☑️📌
It’s possible the late Moses Matovu’s murder was a heist gone wrong. Ask yourself: why does every eyewitness reportedly know the thug who hit him, yet nobody is naming him or even giving an alias? He was coming from a performance, so it wouldn’t be surprising if he had money or valuables on him. That kind of setup isn’t exactly new in the ghettos of Kireka and Kibuli. They say he first hit the woman, yet she reportedly has no visible sign of being struck—by a man who killed another man with a single punch. As police conclude their investigations, expect the story to change considerably. The final account may look very different from the first version. Rest in Peace Papa MOI
