The UPDF Act (Amendment), 2025: Gen. Museveni wants civilians as subjects under military law

(2) classified stores as prescribed in Schedule 7B to this Act; or

(g) where the person is serving in the position of an officer or militant of any force raised and maintained outside Uganda and commanded by an officer of the Defence Forces” (UPDF Amendment Act, 2025).

Time is a wasting and time is really infinite.

What General Yoweri Kaguta Museveni wants is what he gets… The master demands and cronies cooks it up. The President and Commander-in-Chief wants courts and trials he directly controls or can order around. The General Court Martial (GCM) is an instrument that His Excellency wants and needs to oppress or silent dissent. Therefore, his changing laws to make the possible.

The President and the State House wants civilians and citizens to become subjects under Military Law. They want to try civilians in the GCM. That’s the plan and it’s not even concealed. The amendment of the UPDF Act is to codify and legalise the misuse of military court and law in regards to citizens. That’s the message… and it is obvious.

We knew this was coming. The President has to hold people captive and detain the ones who dares to challenge the current rulers of the Republic. They have to make up charges and keep them on remand in the GCM for prolonged time. That’s what the UPDF Act wants to do and a way to keep people behind bars without due process or proper trials. Where the state doesn’t have to produce evidence, witnesses or even proof of the criminal conspiracy, which the civilian is charged with. They are kept incarcerated without sentencing and that’s what the state wants. As they know they cannot do this in ordinary courts or keep the charade going there forever. Therefore, the GCM works well for them and for a reason.

This is who the President is and what sort of leader he has become. He doesn’t trust anyone or anyone who dares to challenge him. That’s why he needs the GCM and the ability to try civilians under military law. This is what he wants and the 11th Parliament will fulfil that void for him.

Citizens are sooner or later returning in bracelets in the GCM. That’s what Museveni want, and what Museveni wants, he gets sooner or later. Peace.
