WHERE IS MR. PATRICK OKIRING AND SAMSON AGUPIO? In July 2017, the @ACHPR issued its decision in respect to communication 339/2007 by @HurinetU & @Isis WICCE against the Government of Uganda. However, as we celebrate the landmark decision, where are the the two torture victims?

We condemn in the strongest terms acts of violence & the senseless killing of Yasin Kawuma a driver of Hon @HEBobiwine in the ongoing #Arua municipality by-elections. Such acts of violence & excessive use of force including abduction of journalists reminds us of our dark past.

The Finacial Intelligence Authority (FIA)acted with great restraint in their handling of the Action Aid Uganda, GLISS &Uhuru Institute in 2017. What's clear is that they (FIA), like other agencies, are held hostage by malafide security agencies &political interest #FIADialogueUg
