5:35 pm
you phemie that's a being here my name is rose philco community i am the editor of african feminism. but as i mentioned uganda is pleading as as an idea a campaign a social media trending what does that mean in reality from the last couple of weeks of campaigning in uganda. i think we have to go back a few weeks ago november 18th which was a very dark day in the history of uganda over 50 people were murdered in the city by security forces and we have no time. like the reports of them are going to do. are there were hundreds of people saw the. rose out of that gate in this not been any plans talking of just peace who was behind this accountability saw definitely sawing that to the lord's towards election on
5:36 pm
generics routine. is not going to be much accountability for this end of. it was a real muscle because there were different people from the ground some people were just walking on the streets and some people are just that there are this is in the building soldiers were shooting through the roof the windows saw that is how the hushed to. bring the attention to the smuggling to this was the largest killing indicates in in the compiler a country so that's where that's what we have to remember. and you know i know you are always very aware of how the world perceives what is going on. when the world he is uganda. how would you explain that. well i think that the government has landed itself in a public relations quagmire because it has look to be in
5:37 pm
a properly organised politically to deal with a challenge over and above the wind because it has been almost obscene on social media which is the biggest block from where educated a teacher licked and some about and i use some of the newest participate in the politics and discuss national affairs it was caught by surprise when so many people rose in just under one. point under somebody's wind because. institutions for political mobilization or political demobilize issue an undercount the mobilization had to be destroyed because the government side the ruling party is lacking and desist or even 'd their faith in what they're doing most of the activities of police are ended to secure this obvious is and when you have ms and the police the world is running your campaign you are likely to get exactly
5:38 pm
what we we saw in november. new having to have joe sisto own who is the spokesperson for the national unity platform not as a the party that is headed up by putting wind i'm not sure that we will be out to get him connected to beat dot com to the program but if you're on twitter tweet to him bring your tweets into the conversation just connectivity what i saw your view that there would be a problem with his line that indicted at the beginning. as well as highly suspicious if. i opened this in my mind that we are yet to come on to the net me in that we take that joking aside and it's something that's very nice and these are. own december the 1st this is the commune good distrait and this is what happened when we won to peace campaign that i went to have a look to see how things are rabbits.
5:39 pm
gas canister this land where we. are explosion. and then a day off to. these events this is where we rinds temporarily suspended his campaign . that seemed that exact cheapie call over a of a campaign event in uganda right now. what you saw is not out of the ordinary to be our nest what we're seeing or being done to paint has been done it was practiced and checked out on dr cheese of this church we know several times that amount of jail or you had to be flown to know what before treatment to the
5:40 pm
middle. of the pains this has been looked at elsewhere saw in many ways it's not new i think that we have to remember that this kind of violence has been systemic and it's been happening in the country for the last all over the years so i think what concerns us right now is the sheer. disorganization i think that one brings in for their region of press then with 70 in the kind of. people that are drawn in by his campaign kind of building on to the historic think by people like the best in the opposition parties saw this is on our largest scale but it's not new we grew some violence before right even journalists being.
5:41 pm
victims of the standard of violence we've seen these images before. no doubt in that so we have we have to. to know that it's a system it is something that works for the for the incumbent to continue to unleash violence on his opponents in creates a very end level ground and create an environment of fear. and he's not just about the line because that stance he's cheap between press and stephanie and probably why it's not just about but he when we show you why on here on my laptop from the day money to. sustains campaigns of talent seen he's an independent presidential candidate i have mentioned several times now and i'm hunting i think that he's internet connection with the state when i joe. i'm hoping you can see me an immediate very loudly did it take you to hear that something is it's actually very dated but it i'm hoping it's notes it's
5:42 pm
a you know so that i miss it gets in the out so yeah that's what i mean there was a news faux pas that all of a new key part of each of their own was a certain. group what's what's happening in uganda is very disturbing that you have a dictator was being powerful for 'd years now who does look want any challenge to he might and i'm not hide the full story about his g.p.s. hopefully it's still to give every day if i'm out here we have over which i would only send a robot popularly known as well the wife who has said i'm going to challenge you and the people at the hives and so there was this violence you know very high handedness you 5 being killed being brutalized by i mean some voice say where that's the support of you and so on but that's a good thing that media too i had my sister was that talk about that that's a good thing the media because that mediates is exposing them just last week. dictatorial government exports deported journalists for endemic swag because they
5:43 pm
are exposing to this regime so that wasn't all of this made him drinking a whole heating beating up your diamonds and they don't want you to go out there which is very disturbing. i'm just looking at something he was sending and i think he had i don't know sometimes that mistake we make. i think that it would be. is sufficient for us today automates the problem of uganda as a contest between the. devil my 70 and injure or position plus i don't think that the ugandan political elite have an agreed set over rules under which political contestation for power. the absence of that shared basic agreement means that often times each side tries to go through or trick or station a means to seek power you see if you look at the behavior to choose the forces it is some of you you will need to toss out
5:44 pm
a lot to get behind it and that the logic is 'd that. the opposition have been saying they have a plan b. elections cannot lead to the power source they have also a plan b. to promote subversion is it your forces when they intervene it's not true that they're necessarily dealing with the small politicians but it's a deposit or subversives who have our agenda butyl actions and they say to themselves so this under under hood. that i was system that is that i think that will a problem so you're going to calibrate it and you know let's put it in my very. life and i've decided i'm just going to get out as i like you and i'm going to. unreactive sounds exactly what i'm saying it is they don't i don't. know i actually and i as she turned out he burns together the internet connection is not strong enough for me to keep us together usually i can do that so i can't today and engine issue time i finish my point. i get invited to sentiment only. or.
5:45 pm
so i was saying that the suspicion on the part of the state which is also grounded in reality that the opposition and look just opposition but they're also involved in political subversion lead to the kind of behavior you see with the state and i think that politics in a poor country is where the elite good not public agreement ok thanks sanjay i'm going over to joe in a child xander and i'm going off to pick up these. if you say the challenge with them was of in the propagandists like under when that is that they try to hide the truth of a puppet so he say that there is no i wonder when i will have a constitution in that country it sets rules that should be played by iraq war situation places though i mean somewhere i'm not in our elections and all of that why do you say that you know we have being brutalized we are being killed because apparently we might be some how do you explain under generalists and i being beaten
5:46 pm
up this we need to know is that i am hospitals where they've been some of us if my dear it were that i've been killed in our streets and all the innocent people there is the ugly either who was feeding me i saw you as we're watching by the streets and that's what's filming that dream that i'm told us of being some sort of that's the chiding that there was something before that we want to justify. but no this is what being beaten because deaths of us even though these different things innocent lives are being lost under under rule when you as still very much in the media i think if i'm that interested us i just always say joe you don't think john's joho type and then i don't want to get into and his history because we don't have time for that i want our runs now can you have a new can we not 2 up here we are. in this to play this kind of function and i will now be losing i'm losing as. ok arguing with riff except for the home tie for a moment roaster i am wondering in all of this back and forth are we losing what is
5:47 pm
a real issues that ugandans care about heading towards the general election we are an online what are the issues that you are looking at which she's just trying to survive and then a more detailed response from talia to me are serious good health care access to education job creation a system that is inclusive that is based on skills not nepotism corruption dictatorship and tyranny so that some a more in-depth agenda there for what tamiya would hope to get. election issues and surplus issues to address are you seeing politicians addressing this or are they in their manifestos well spent. i think having a manifesto is one thing but making these issues articulated in every day it becomes difficult each have our own opposition politician or in stumping in wearing
5:48 pm
. a bullet proof vest to avoid being killed saw somehow because of the violence that unfortunately there are of the cultural issues that we should be talking about for that mission talking about the fact that we have quantity. in the mission is still a goal an economic crisis triggered by conjured millions of people are losing their jobs they can't afford i mean every day but it's covered when you have bodies on or on your street because they're being short sort of issues take a back seat unfortunately but these are issues like tanya has talked about what we should be able to speak up about it's not centrists that 7 government is the fact that magic of uganda is in different parts of the country don't feel that the government represents their gen win because they don't. people who look like them carrying out. document. so we need to talk about that but also i wanted to say
5:49 pm
under the only person in uganda who have come to power so of course you should i mean this president was 70 and really it's just so on so i hope that he can give us just about what i think the point i want to make here is that it is and we're still a single story about uganda because during his demonstrations many of which were there russian remember that too many young people set up roadblocks bunch of cars in the middle of the road attacked supporters of government to loot to the property there of the government is this sure law and order once you sent it your forces to issue an order is very difficult to avoid mistakes because the looks of these mistakes. were not it is simple it says that they're under a gun. and we're not going to tell us and i was only for a defiant if you think people that you can talk the same policy reaction towards when people are educated you can't go insult them point blank that is not that is
5:50 pm
not a mistake it is up but it is a systemic response to anything that you got and it's about there is things i was there were some people who were attacking other supporters but the reality is that the people that are talking to supporters or is that instead of violence we have must've state sponsored violence which is the root cause of all of this that you have been in the streets i answer again changes than just what i'm not against insurgents initially on so many and i do mean it's not for my own voice but i'm doing it because we have so many people on the ship i'm going to ask you to briefly respond to their questions and nice says and i'm going to see you joe one doesn't have any key policies because he seems to only focus on telling people that the alliance would be better there's no serious platform for him joe briefly respond to nice nice new cheap what you might now. both of us looked at it looks through of course you know regime program the sort of keep trying to debate that
5:51 pm
image if they have been attentive we have been creating articulating the issue is you know we keep raising this feast because it's 5 critical issues that are once took a vote and have been talking about these things up or to sound like broken really broken record you know with all the void if people say that government that's important for us you're full of all inclusive economic development in the whole it's our line that our natural resources getting to be used and what's been done the situation is the 4th being equal out so it's the quality education and health care rights of the other issue being international relations where we have quite a challenge with that and that of course our national security so all these are part of our money 1st of all which we have been putting out there for those that can't reason but some clearly could divide us you know what i want to say that. if i have another commission and i know i wanted to shape all right without what is on you tube i know you know that that's an important audience particularly for you if they're on social media i know that's an important audience safia be. what changes
5:52 pm
will miss 70 make if he's reelected in the city for he is that he has been that uganda has not appeared to progress even if unqualified isn't changing media and john not going to say to jump into the head oppressiveness 70 but that my dear about change needed a study for yes and then and then more coming up the next year i was you respond to save me i still hold on listen to anybody who wants a change in the president of uganda i am number one nobody believes in you and that somebody has to see that in a change. in a change. is to change that is when the 2nd thing for me is that it's not true that you're going to if you're not groomed by the news right now they have to the least on the face best they can before economies in the world and uganda is number 2 in the one at the number 5 you know what number 2 enough are. uganda has sustained an impressive drip of economy to grow over the last 35 he has made the choice it has
5:53 pm
been 11 1st as a group you couldn't go where you are going to play just this record in terms of g.d.p. growth back up and government of expression of welfare is a matter the basic structure has been you're going to be stark and the opposition wants to deny this reality they were doing just don't understand you could explore a strictly they don't understand economics there is a great ad the country there has been abandoned you're going as good as. your guests are selling to me dangling by mary mother of god go for it i'm going to come under like a lot of i'm not i'm your general it was already out it was that under your plan not to mention so sad talk transformation just by looking at. him because it's about who. is it more 70 and his cronies is it any 4 around the time small type of private sector that's out the president and his family and his glands well it's growing who is being left behind unfortunately this group up
5:54 pm
and. going to do that also color it so i've got inequality many down that's what every you go that's out of the top 4 about what we know that that is also a record of just i want to tell you what everything going to church everyone these are all events and not a religion that is what one class it actually feels about well in what you want as tight a moment because i literally cannot he you i'm going to take a course because we're almost at the end of the show but i want to bring in 16 and says you know we've been talking about science who can. preschool manifestos be talk about different campaigns but safina has one idea for how you can demi's forward and this is what she told us and you have a listen. me or just that once this is. my team this. this is how we. put it
5:55 pm
this is how we favor them my time to vote again. and the region knows the moderates will see. this really being i mean this seems that the only yes this year the. one leaving town is where mainly. from greatest to most suhayda of this show we did a very unscientific stream coa reset you can decide 2021 who do you think will win the 2021 presidential election this is unscientific present you erema 70 gets 30 percent where we wind get 69 percent in our very unscientific poll and then if comments uganda will decide to vote for but we why but with 70 we just written notes the cynics in the stream online community classy seriously i mean you very seriously asking this question talk about something else as cedric this is not
5:56 pm
a question to ask a 70 were never let go of his presidency you can look underneath that week that's on a.j. stream to see more of those responses let me go back to roosevelt roosevelt this idea about the can there be a free and fair election on january the 14th will the person gets the most votes actually become president is that possible in uganda today. from where i stand it is almost in course a board because we have into the calls for the last 5 times i have for ted in most of the election since i turned 18 and these elections some of them the courts of law have stayed though i don't see and we have seen the last x. on 26th in the military was deployed to that position leader was under house arrest to control any kind of response to the election so we have known for a long time that we don't have an impartial and actual commission in the process
5:57 pm
it's not free and fair campaigning to write to the county so i'm wondering actually ask someone like joe what pushes you every day and you know i think when a hopeless i will say write it to me earlier when you're with a shared. writing at the end of the. show i just thought it was very much you know what i want to say things i can say you have to answer in 30 seconds can you do that very important for me to say this or not to say the government's not understand economics i'm thinking are you kidding me there were lots of economics when they don't have pocket money in their pockets when they're i mean it's just about out of iraq but maybe how. much we are now really anxious to other people like remain friends and here is my last article on how the conversation hasn't ended yet had i behaved to my laptop let me show you that we will take a groundswell to instagram live at 2030 g.m.t. to continue the conversation thanks to what uniquely i see next.
