Bobi Wine said this quoting a headline in the observer that read that they have ordered the MPs to make sure the bail bill must pass. He said this is evidence that Museveni is hell-bent on making their lives very difficult.
“Always looking for more repressive tactics, #DictatorMuseveni is now hell-bent on scrapping bail for ‘capital offences’ in our laws. An absolute joke, in a country where people are each day framed because they disagree with him. One would expect the MPs to learn from history,” he wrote.
He expressed his disappointment in Members of Parliament who have failed to learn from history. He emphasized the fact that when they pass such bills, the very MPs are the first victims.
“The MPs ought to THINK TWICE. Those who have championed such illegal, repressive and immoral laws have always been the first victims. History is replete with examples. Above all, we can only end this madness by #RemovingtheDictator. We all have a role to play.”
Museveni has been so bent on passing the bail bill into law saying capital offenders don’t deserve bail. It should however be remembered that this suggestion came in after MPs Ssegirinya and Ssewanyana were arrested.
This is why regardless of the positive impacts it may have, people want to think it’s very political and selfish.
This is a debate that is still ongoing and highly followed because people want to know where it is heading.
