Former FDC president Colonel Dr. Kizza Besigye Kifeefe has appeared before Buganda Road Court to face charges of inciting a violent demonstration against the high cost of food prices in Uganda during that time.
However, the charges are based on his protests in Kampala in 2022, where he demonstrated against the high prices of commodities together with opposition activist Samuel Lubega Mukaaku.
The veteran opposition figure has been vocal about the economic hardships faced by Ugandans, often calling on the government to address the rising cost of living.

On January 9, the court failed to proceed with the case after Dr. Besigye, who is on remand in Luzira on separate charges by the General Court Martial, could not show up. Additionally, the state and defense lawyer, Erias Lukwago, traded blame for his no-show, with the latter telling the court it was the prosecution’s mandate to produce for the hearing.
Furthermore, different lawyers are working hard to ensure that Besigye is free from these cases that are against him so that he gets his freedom in the country.
In conclusion, the court proceedings have attracted attention from the public and political supporters, as Dr. Kizza Besigye continues to challenge the status quo; however, here at our news platform, we continue to pray for Besigye.
