Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>The opposition National Unity Platform (NUP) party has said it will carry on with its planned rallies amidst fresh police ban on their activities issued Wednesday.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday, police accused opposition leader and NUP president Robert Kyagulanyi of using \u201csectarian remarks and leading cause to remove President Museveni\u2019s legitimate government.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201c[Today] Arua has concluded phase one of our NUP country wide tour in a massive way. No wonder, the regime is in panic and trying to stop our engagements,\u201d NUP spokesperson Joel Ssenyonyi said of their heightened activities which started on August 28.<\/p>\n

Announcing Wednesday\u2019s directive by Deputy Inspector General of Police Geoffrey Tumusiime Katsigaazi- on behalf of police chief Martins Okoth Ochola, the Force\u2019s spokesperson Fred Enanga said:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe mobilization activities were used to incite violence, promote sectarianism, and issuance of defamatory statements against the person of the President.”<\/p>\n

Enanga also revealed security plans to \u201cto put an end to the mob mentality, bullying and intimidating tactics of NUP radicals against civilians and law enforcers.\u201d<\/p>\n

But on microblogging app X, which was formally Twitter, Ssenyonyi responded saying \u201cvery soon, we’re going to unveil our schedule for phase two of our tour. We’re not about to stop!!\u201d<\/p>\n

On its communication platforms, NUP Wednesday evening hinted that their next mobilization phase particularly targets the central region, an opposition stronghold.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe people are speaking one language in all these regions [visited]; they want change,\u201d NUP emphasized.<\/p>\n

At the time of ending the first phase of his tours, Kyagulanyi had covered at least 12 key districts from separate major regions in Uganda, attracting crowds that sparked debate on social and mainstream media.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve noticed that in all areas where NUP mobilization activities have been carried out, there has been total breaches of the guidelines thus causing public disorder, loss of business, unnecessary jam and vandalization, loss of lives where Norman Mugisa died and 10 others were injured in a NUP convoy in Hoima,\u201d Enanga highlighted earlier, before warning that an existing police act would be used to safeguard Uganda.<\/p>\n

Police suspend Bobi Wine mobilisation tour<\/p>\n

Police spokesperson Fred Enanga has this afternoon announced that Uganda police has with immediate effect suspended all NUP mobilisation activities until further notice. ?@abubakerlubowa#MonitorUpdates pic.twitter.com\/52U45uvSTR<\/p>\n
