In Kampala, Uganda, the government has deployed military and police forces to prevent planned anti-corruption protests organized by young activists. Authorities blocked all roads to Parliament, allowing access only to lawmakers, citing intelligence that criminal elements might exploit the protests for looting and vandalism. Residents described the scene as resembling a 'war zone,' with armored personnel carriers patrolling the streets. President Yoweri Museveni has warned that protests will not be tolerated, and police have sealed off the offices of the largest opposition party, accusing it of mobilizing for the protests. Despite the government's denials, opposition leaders and rights activists accuse Museveni of failing to address rampant corruption and human rights abuses within his administration. Museveni maintains that he does not condone corruption and that offenders are prosecuted when sufficient evidence is available.
