Ninye Tabz, a well-known government critic and social media activist, has reportedly been abducted from Kamwokya by unknown individuals, sparking fresh concerns about security and human rights in Uganda. According to information circulating online, he was allegedly whisked away in a “drone,” a term commonly used to describe unmarked security vehicles. The reported incident has triggered widespread reactions from activists and opposition supporters, who are demanding answers about his whereabouts and safety.
The reports quickly spread across social media platforms, with activists, opposition supporters, and human rights advocates demanding answers about his whereabouts. Many expressed fear over the growing number of alleged abductions and arrests involving government critics, raising concerns about personal safety and freedom of expression in the country.
Several users used the hashtag #FreeUgandaNow to voice their frustration, arguing that such incidents create an atmosphere of fear among citizens. Others called upon security agencies to immediately clarify whether Ninye Tabz is in official custody and, if so, reveal the reasons for his detention. At the time of writing, there had been no official statement from security authorities regarding the reported incident.
The alleged abduction comes at a time when debates about human rights, political freedoms, and the rule of law continue to dominate public discussion in Uganda. Human rights organizations have repeatedly called for transparency whenever arrests are made, insisting that individuals should be informed of the reasons for their detention and granted access to legal representation.
As concern continues to grow, supporters and family members of Ninye Tabz are reportedly seeking information about his location and condition. Many Ugandans are now closely following developments, hoping for answers and calling for respect for constitutional rights and due process. The incident has once again reignited a national conversation about accountability, justice, and the protection of civil liberties in Uganda.
