        We need a fresh start with a leader who understands the majority of Uganda's population (the youth), we don't want to hear bush war stories or tales of terror,we want 21st century solutions to our 21st century problems. #FreeBobiWine #FreeArua33 We shall not relentpic.twitter.com/D8snBDngWW

        All of Africa is tired of these old wo/men and their bush war stories. African is the only continent regressing while others are progressing.

        There is no crisis you enemies of Africa. The so called Bobi Wine can not even get 2% incase he contest as president 2021. He is just seeking popularity cheaply but no sane Ugandan can vote him

        Since @HEBobiwine can't get 2%, let @KagutaMuseveni allow him to contest so, we can prove it. #freeUganda #FreeBobiWine #FreeMPs #peoplePower

        M7 doesnt have permission to stop him from contesting, M7 is a democratic man,so your statement is null and void to say that Let M7 allow him, did he deny him for Kyadondo constituency?. #KadingoCantBePresident of republic bt GhettoPresident

        It’s funny how you quote Psalms 118:22 on your profile and then make such a comment. You know Obote used to say same things about M7, don’t you?

        Loool I'm crissing 😂😂😂. I went to check and looks like he's deleted it. But he's pinned another verse though. Twitter Christians aye, the modern Pharisees and sadducees.

        It’s still there actually. Not among his tweets but rather on the profile just below his name.
