FDC [2-Nov-2022 3:26pm]; Hullo, This is the Forum for Democratic Change -FDC Uganda. Lets talk about how Democracy can be upheld in our country. It is our collective responsibility as Citizens of this great Nation to restore the rule of law and democracy in Uganda.

This is therefore to invite you to join us in this struggle for a socially, economically and politically transformed Uganda.

Osuta [2-Nov-2022 4:02pm]; When my freedom was curtailed in January-2018 over my noble write ups of criticizing NRM party leadership which is the party in Government, no single Opposition activist nor MP stood with me, except the MP for Maracha County Hon Oguzu Lee Denis (FDC) who tried to stand with me on the first day 8-January-2018 in that difficult situation.

I stayed indoors for 18 days!

My freedom of movement and work were all curtailed!

The rest of the people who stood with me to make sure i was left to be a free man, were some few NRM people including among others Mr Adomati Dickson (staunch NRM cadre), Hon James Acidri (former Maracha East MP) and Hon Anite Evelyn who later on played a crucial role which i can’t share here.

Those are the people i remain indebted to as far as my freedom that time was concerned.

During that month January 2018 when i was in trouble, i tried to communicate my dilemma to FDC headquarter through Mr Harold Kaija, who later on referred me to Hon Wadri Kassiano whom he said can be able to help me through getting for me a lawyer and so on, up to date and up to tomorrow, i am still waiting for their feedback as FDC headquarter.

I can’t mention the names of other people and lawyers who contributed into my freedom way back in 2018.

From 2020, as a way of smoothening my career in Media, freelancing, i decided to neutralize my write ups, reportage and my opinions about the political, economic and social events happening in Uganda.

To cut these short, i am now a reformed writer and media practitioner who doesn’t see it necessary to subscribe to any any political party in Uganda because of their occult behaviors, where by, when a party supports something, no member can oppose it.

I am okay where i am right now as an Independent writer, reporter, activist and freelancer from WestNile Region.

Thanks.

Yours, Osuta

One Uganda, One People

UGANDA ELECTORAL COMMISSION TO ELIMINATE NATIONAL IDENTIFICATION CARDS (IDs) FOR 2021 GENERAL ELECTIONS.

The elimination of using National IDs (Ndagamuntu) for the 2021 elections should not have come as a surprise. One would be very NAIVE to think that Bobi Wine has not prepared for this in his Business Plan under the RISK section. It is public knowledge that our EC is not independent. It is also public knowledge that Military Dictator Yoweri Museveni will never lose an election. What stunned us this morning is when we noticed that on social media, people were mocking Bobi with his "get your Ndagamuntu". We are on record for saying to all Our readers that the National ID is like Apartheid in South Africa. Students of History would know how those IDs were being used to arrest people, deny them jobs, deny them basic services. Consequently, Bobi was not wrong and will never be wrong on the Ndagamuntu. Except the ones attacking him and mocking him forget that in Uganda, now, no National ID (Ndagamuntu), no service. If you have not been denied registering your child i...

Parliament Urges Government to Provide Shs 4 Billion to Media Houses to Run Awareness Campaign on Tourism in Uganda.

Parliament also urged Gov’t to provide additional Shs4Bn to UTB to engage international and national media houses in production of positive media stories for improved destination image, following reports of drop in number of tourists from US, Europe and China visiting Uganda. "The National Development Plan targeted to cumulatively attract 281,760 International Tourist arrivals from US, Europe & China but only 67,252 arrivals were registered by the end of the first half of FY 2023/24. The U.S, Europe & China were key target source for leisure tourist who stay longer than business tourists. However, statistics show that international arrivals from the aforementioned areas have continue to drop. The UTB requires Shs4Bn to engage international & national media houses in production of positive tourism stories to improve destination perception in light of recent controversies that shade the destination in a bad light. However, this has remained unfunded,” said La...
