Prof. Ogengo Morris Latigo: NUP Arrest, UPDF Amendment Bill 2025 and NRM in Northern Uganda
0Professor Morris Ogenga Latigo, former Leader of the Opposition in Uganda's Parliament, has been a vocal critic of the UPDF Amendment Bill 2025. He argues that the bill's provisions allowing military courts to try civilians undermine constitutional rights and could be used to suppress dissent. Latigo emphasizes that such measures erode public trust in the government and exacerbate tensions, particularly in regions like Northern Uganda that have experienced historical grievances.
Regarding the National Unity Platform (NUP), Latigo has expressed concern over the government's approach to opposition parties. He highlights that arrests and intimidation tactics against NUP members reflect a broader pattern of political repression. Latigo advocates for dialogue and democratic processes as means to resolve political differences, cautioning that continued suppression could lead to increased instability.
In Northern Uganda, Latigo underscores the importance of addressing socio-economic challenges and ensuring equitable development to foster national unity and prevent further marginalization of the region.
Additionally, Latigo has criticized his political opponent, Okot John Amos, accusing him of accepting a 100 million Ugandan shilling bribe to support the UPDF Amendment Bill. He contends that such actions compromise the integrity of the legislative process and betray the trust of their constituents.
