TO: THE INSPECTOR GENERAL OF POLICE (IGP) Cc: THE DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC PROSECUTIONS (DPP) Dear Sir/Madam, RE: COMPLAINT ON THE INHUMANE AND UNLAWFUL TREATMENT OF FAMILY MEMBERS OF A SUSPECT I write to you with deep concern and dissatisfaction regarding the conduct of officers of the Uganda Police Force in relation to a widely circulating video involving the family members of one Anguyo Moses, a prison warder alleged to have committed a grave murder crime in Kiboga District. While the suspect has reportedly been apprehended and is in lawful custody, it is both disturbing and unacceptable that his family members who are neither suspects nor accused persons are being subjected to treatment that is not only degrading but also devoid of any legal justification. The actions captured in the video clip raise several critical questions about our justice system! On what legal basis are innocent family members being paraded alongside a criminal suspect in a manner that suggests collective guilt? Wh...

It has become a painful reality in West Nile that true unity among our people often reveals itself only in moments of loss. When a son or daughter of West Nile passes on, the community gathers in large numbers, transcending political divides, religious differences, and even personal grudges. In those moments of mourning, there is solidarity, compassion, and an outpouring of love. But this begs a sobering question, Why do we only come together in death? Why must we wait for the grave before we embrace peace, togetherness, and love? Why is it so difficult for us to show that same unity when our people are alive, striving, and contributing to the growth of our region? Across West Nile, too much energy is wasted on acrimony and unnecessary petty petty rivalries. Leaders spend more time fighting one another than building bridges. Followers are often dragged into divisions, cheering on conflicts that hold the entire region back. Talented men and women are discouraged, not because they lack a...
