Government needs to excercise maximum restraint and revert to their mandate as is in the constitution of Uganda #FreeCivicSpaceUg
#UgandaIsBleeding
These NGOs complement government in service delivery efforts & such actions only affect these organizations but also affects many Ugandans who benefit from the work and services these and many other organizations do.

Perry Aritua: When you attack UWONET, you have not just attacked the secretariat but all the women of this country. #FreeCivicSpaceUG
The Financial Intelligence Authority has made grave, unfounded and baseless against NGOs & subsequently frozen their bank accounts as attacks on NGOs & other citizen organizations by the regime continue. Watch the NGOs response here: fb.watch/2luFqjvbsc/

Civil Society Leaders’ Statement on the Attacks on NGOs. “We are fully conscious that these accusations are intended to deligitimize our work, blackmail us and make us look bad in the eyes of the citizens we serve.” #CivicSpaceUg

We are deeply troubled
as CSOs about
the growing smear campaign engineered to undermine our credibility

By attacking an umbrella women’s rights organization, UWONET, the state has in effect undermined women’s organizing and disrupted critical work supporting women’s leadership (regardless of political party) during this election season. #CivicSpaceUg
We are at a presser to stand in solidarity with Civil Society Organizations, and condemn the attacks by the state intended to cripple them. The accounts of UWONET and UG NGO Forum have been frozen in a brazen attempt to disrupt critical work that CSOs undertake. #CivicSpaceUG
