Former presidential candidate Amama Mbabazi has criticized government for jailing the FDC President Dr.Kizza Besigye while accusing him for treason.
Speaking at a thanks giving function for victory of Mr Kenneth Tumuhamye, Kanyantorogo at Kishenyi Church of Uganda in Kanungu district on Sunday Mr Mbabazi said there cannot be peace when there is no democracy and freedom of expression so he called upon government to go on a round table with opposition leaders instead of jailing them.
“I will speak the truth even if they zip up my mouth and cut off my hands until we get change. Nobody should threaten Ugandans because Uganda is for us all.” said Mbabazi.
“I shouldn’t be going back into active law practice but because of the need for peace (in this country) I will be his (Besigye) lawyer,” Mr Mbabazi added.
