NO ONE HAS A RIGHT TO STOP UGANDANS FROM WATCHING NBS, NTV AND UBC CHANNELS

By Our Correspondent

Dear fellow Ugandans, feel free to watch any TV Channel of your choice. Who has the right to direct us on which channel to watch? Do they pay for our monthly subscription fee?

If you have personal problem of accountability to your donors, please don’t start by attacking media houses but rather tell them the truth that Museveni is strong and loved by Ugandans.

Thank you NBS, NTV, UBC and other TV Channels in Uganda for your independent coverage and doing your perfect work with high level of professionalism and integrity.

You are the reason Uganda is peaceful and stable. We stand with you in whatever situation. May you continue with your independent operation in Uganda. Receive greetings from Northern Uganda.

Well, the NUP leader outed and shared with citizens his well considered protest to the management of the Next Media House (NBS), a very organized and popular media house in the country ! The intention of the letter required no special interpreter.  Some overzealous citizens took the letter as a license to wage on the Next Media.

Now, do you know? Threatening in whatever way the lives of those you might disagree with is criminal, yet it is this approach NUP is using.  Media is a partner of human rights defenders; it is a mirror to society; it should not be blackmailed. However, there is need for civility, supporters who are genuinely aggrieved should be accommodated.

This whole saga comes as a result of the letter the NUP leader wrote to NBS TV, claiming the station worked with the regime to announce President Yoweri Tubuhaburwa in what he termed as, ” fake results.”  In a letter to the company Chief Executive, which he later shared on social media, Bobi Wine said he attributted the “false results” to NBS.
