The People’s Front for Freedom (PFF) has warned that it may mobilise the opposition to reject the upcoming Kawempe North by-election if attacks by the state agents against opposition supporters continue.
However, Erias Lukwago, the PFF President, condemned the escalating violence in the constituency, accusing security agencies led by the Joint Anti-Terrorism Taskforce (JAT) of failing to act.
Lukwago told Uncovered Ug news reporters that “If the JAT gunmen continue their attacks on innocent citizens in Kawempe, we will have no choice but to call for a boycott of the election.”.

Furthermore, the state has disowned the impunity and the men in uniform that reigned over it, although the Chief of Defence Forces, General Muhoozi Kainerugaba, on Wednesday said “they were doing a great job.”.
“We are still hopeful that we will find common ground and present one strong candidate for the people of Kawempe North,” he said.
PFF president Erias Lukwago also urged Ugandans to put more pressure on the government to free Dr Kizza Besigye

In conclusion, Lukwago criticised the delay as political interference, warning that justice should not be used as a weapon. READ MOREÂ
