{UAH} Aminism is BACK?

President Museveni’s guards, the Special Forces Command (SFC), yesterday detained and quizzed four journalists working with Daily Monitor and NTV after they sought to interview ex-Prime Minister Amama Mbabazi’s wife, Ms Jacqueline Mbabazi, on why she was blocked from attending an NRM women conference.

Ms Mbabazi haggled with security for hours and later gave up after she was told she was not on the list of guests despite being chairperson.
She sat outside the hall, demanding she would only leave once President Museveni arrives.

As she took a stroll, she was confronted by journalists who interviewed her about what had transpired. She readily responded to all questions saying her predicament was the work of some members of the executive, working closely with State House.”

“As the national chairperson, I have been locked out of the meeting which I am supposed to chair,” she said: “I cannot be removed unless there is an election.”

No sooner had the journalists finished interviewing Ms Mbabazi than the guards pounced and dragged the journalists to the sides; accusing them of compromising the president’s security.

They confiscated their equipment including mobile phones and cameras, amidst a barrage of threats of blacklisting them from never covering any Presidential function again or even arresting and detaining them.

The soldiers rummaged through all the equipment and deleted all photos and video recordings. 
The detention and quizzing lasted for about two hours with the soldiers claiming they were protecting their jobs.
