    "The United States has often been introduced as the world's greatest democracy. So isn't it hypocritical for the world's greatest democracy to be the biggest sponsor of the abuse of democracy in Uganda?" - @HEBobiwine Join us now!:youtube.com/watch?v=GSxNEM…

    We are very concerned about the reported attempt today to abduct Tundu Lissu (@TunduALissu) in #Tanzania. On our first ever broadcast, we featured him — along with @HEBobiwine and @advocatemahere. Tundu’s commitment to freedom, democracy and a better country for all is evident.
