Bobi Wine wants action taken against the Ugandan government which perpetrates this gross human rights abuse. This followed the release of the NUP registrar from Kasese district, Samuel Masereka.
According to NUP spokesperson, Joel Ssenyonyi, gun wielding men 3 weeks ago kidnapped Masereka and two others.
They took them to CMI in Mbuya and SIU in Kireka. They later released the trio but in a sickening situation.
“Samuel Masereka, NUP’s coordinator in Kasese & 2 mobilisers(Tembo Hamza & Alazarius Bisogho) were arrested 3 weeks ago by gun wielding men in a drone, taken to CMI Mbuya & later SIU Kireka. They were released on bond, dropped by a similar drone in Kasese & this is the state in which he is!!!,” Ssenyonyi tweeted.
Bobi Wine also took to his Twitter page to condemn this gross abuse of human rights.
While at CMI, they charged the two with subversive activities. They then dropped them in Kasese by the same drone that captured them weeks ago.
Masereka’s body is full of wounds and cuts. The pictures are really appalling and sickening to look at. They however not allow to talk or show the pictures to the press.
It was from this that the former presidential candidate tagged agencies like the United Nations Human Rights Commission. The singer turned politician added that it’s time such agencies stop looking on and took action.
The infamous “drones” have kidnapped many people since the post 2021 general elections. Most of these have been from the Opposition especially NUP.
However, they have done nothing yet as all that flies around is words and zero action.

![[dropcap]A[/dropcap] section of women in Bugongo parish and Nawangaiza parish in Nawandala Sub County, Iganga District have decried the near-impossible terms set for them to access GROW funds. They have now petitioned their woman member of parliament for Iganga Hon. Kauma Sauda Alibaawo to ask the government for revised terms and conditions. This is to enable them to benefit from the program. The disgruntled women accuse the implementers of the program of charging the money. They are also asking for their land titles and land agreements. They said that such properties are governed by their husbands. These, therefore want the government through their woman MP to intervene and revise the requirements for one to benefit. The women were on Wednesday at Namabwere primary school in Nawandala Sub County. They had gathered in their respective groups to receive over 300 chickens from Hon Alibaawo in her campaign to improve the livelihood of women in Iganga district. Each group was given 50 chicken as start-up capital in their journey to prosperity. Read what some leaders said; Ms Naigambi Lydia from Nawandala Trading Centre says, “They solicited money from us through opening bank accounts and depositing Shs80,000. They also asked for land titles and land agreements from us yet we don’t have such things. I was informed that I needed to have a business with a capital of Shs4m yet my capital was very small.” The chairperson Kisoboka Saving Group in Nawandala Ms. Nakagolo Faith said they were not able to join the program. This is given the many conditions attached. She also asked their woman MP to raise their concerns to the relevant offices. The MP condemned the mode of implementation of the program. She cited that it has turned to benefit the well-off class of women other than the intended group. She further asked the government to intervene saying the current strings attached to the programme are very tight to accommodate a common woman. GROW project is a Government of Uganda initiative that arose out of the need to respond to the needs of women entrepreneurs. This is especially those who want to grow their businesses, sustain their self-employment and create more jobs.
