UGDecides 2021: The regime’s days are numbered, Gen Muntu fumes at Police brutality

UGDecides2021: The regime’s days are numbered, Gen Muntu fumes. Whisper Eye Reports

ANT presidential flagbearer Gen Mugisha Muntu has come out to speak about the continued police interference with the politics of Ugandans.

Earlier Muntu was blocked to address his supporters in Masindi by the area DPC as of today Muntu has been denied to address his supporters in Bugiri.

In a statement Gen Muntu States :


Today in Bugiri, as we have done since the start of the campaign season, we headed out to speak with the people. We had earlier in the week agreed on the venue with security agencies. No one had anticipated that it would rain as much as it did, making it impossible for us or the people to access.

After identifying an alternative place only 100m away from the original venue, negotiating with the owner and communicating the same to the public, we headed to the second venue only to be stopped by police.

Our policy has always been to do all we can to be reasonable, even in the face of unreasonable action on the part of the state. We engaged the police leadership in a civilized, respectable manner well knowing that they intended to not only frustrate us, but cause us to act in ways that would give them an excuse to cause chaos. This was on top of their intimidating the radio we had booked and duly paid to appear on.

While we are confident that we are on the right side of both the law and reason, we have chosen not to endanger the lives of our supporters or the general public by escalating the situation. We will do everything humanly possible to avoid a single life being lost or blood being shed on account of our campaign.

And yet this truth remains: the regime’s days are numbered. Gen Muntu summarized.

Gen Muntu faces his former boss and commander in-chief Yoweri Kaguta Museveni for the top politcal office in the country.
