Robert Amsterdam , a U.S.-based international lawyer who has been banned from entering Uganda, has openly described the Museveni administration as a “thugocracy.” In an interview on Think Africa, Amsterdam—who recently issued an official statement urging international donors to Uganda to condition their aid on guarantees for the...

Bobi Wine was recently selected to address the Geneva Summit for Human Rights and Democracy, marking his second appearance at the prestigious international forum. He first spoke at the summit in 2023 following Uganda’s 2021 general elections. This time, however, the circumstances surrounding his address are markedly different. After the 2026 elections, Bobi Wine fled his home and has remained in hiding amid threats from Muhoozi Kainerugaba, Uganda’s Chief of Defence Forces. As a result, he is expected to deliver his address remotely via video rather than appearing in person. In his 2023 maiden speech at the summit, Bobi Wine described what he characterized as widespread violence and repression during the 2020 election campaigns. He explained the numerous times Ugandans were killed by state authorities, under President Yoweri Museveni, who is responsible for grave human rights violations. His message was direct and focused: he urged the international community to reconsider its relationship with Museveni’s government, calling for an end to financial support and diplomatic cooperation. He further appealed for targeted sanctions against Museveni and his associates, advocating for their international isolation. Despite ongoing concerns raised by human rights organizations and opposition figures, Western governments have continued to engage with Museveni’s administration. This raises an important question: what will Bobi Wine’s upcoming address emphasize under these new and more precarious circumstances? Below is my commentary on his maiden address, during which he introduced himself and his cause to the global stage. YouTube - EU in Uganda United Nations

🤔 BOBI WINE is blabbering to a straightforward question whether he supports or opposes the repressive anti-homosexuality law in uganda which he claims targets him! bobi wine describes the law as a “political weapon,” asserting that any statement he makes could be used against him. however, to me, this explanation falls short, considering his silence during the law's passage and the unanimous support for it from his/out nup party's mps. this situation begs two questions: 𝟏. is our entire nup party complicit, or there is a lack of leadership in addressing internal dissent? 𝟐. as the president of the party, what disciplinary actions has bobi wine take against the homophobic nup parliamentarians who voted for a law that is targeting him and themselves, besides firing the former leader of opposition, Mathias Mpuuga, who misled the entire opposition to vote for the anti-lgbtiq+ law? still when pressed on whether bobi wine would repeal the law if he came to power, his hesitation leaves my eyebrows fully deployed! asserting a commitment to respect all human rights without specifically recognizing lgbtiq+ rights as human rights is not enough. there cannot be true democracy without lgbtiq+rights. as bobi wine sang that “𝐈𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐭𝐡, 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐛𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐛𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐞,” why now cower or get excuses that whatever you say about the anti-gay law, it will be used against you? let’s walk our talk! the time has come for ugandan politicians and leaders to unequivocally oppose the egregious anti-homosexuality law. advocating for some rights while remaining ambiguous about lgbtiq+ rights is inconsistent, inexcusable, indefensible, unacceptable, and undermines the principles of democracy, justice and equality. the political exploitation of human rights issues by the opposition and the junta must end. you should either stand for lgbtiq+ rights or stand for hypocrisy, hate, and politics of appeasement. politicians, always be clear and firm on your position when it comes to the queer rights just like it is on other subjects like political and civil rights, good governance, rule of law, corruption, women’s rights, children’s rights… where you don’t blabber. otherwise the chess and checkers politicians are playing is exacerbating marginalization and plight of lgbtiq+ ugandans, which unacceptable!#standupforhumanrights #repealaha2023 #turnoffthehate

As Uganda moves toward the 2026 general elections, the nation is once again being dragged into a familiar and troubling cycle of state-sponsored violence. Security forces loyal to President Yoweri Museveni are once more unleashing repression, shielded by a regime determined to cling to power at all costs. The scenes unfolding today are eerily reminiscent of the run-up to the 2021 elections, when opposition leader Bobi Wine was arrested and brutalized, scores of his supporters were killed, and the electoral process was widely condemned as fraudulent. History is now repeating itself. Police and military forces are openly trampling on the law and the Constitution, not in the interest of national security, but to preserve Museveni’s iron grip on power. As this repression intensifies, Museveni continues to posture as the guardian of Uganda’s so-called “gains,” a slogan he now routinely deploy to justify state violence. In reality, this rhetoric serves as a calculated attempt to gaslight the nation, masking repression as patriotism. During the lead-up and after the previous election, however, these kind of narrative were put under rare and intense scrutiny. In a now-notable interview with Channel 4 News journalist Lindsey Hilsum, Museveni was confronted with his own words. He made explosive yet unsubstantiated claims that Bobi Wine was funded by the LGBTQ+ community and foreign agents. Hilsum refused to let these accusations slide, repeatedly demanding evidence. Unable to substantiate his claims, Museveni resorted to deflection, laying bare the hollowness of his accusations and the desperation behind them. The interview, together with my commentary, can be viewed here. YouTube -
