Nearly 90 days after the alleged abduction of Ugandan opposition figure Dr Kizza Besigye in Kenya, pressure is mounting on the Ugandan government to release him.
Kenyans and Ugandans have taken to X (formerly Twitter) under the hashtag #FreeKizzaBesigye, calling for his immediate release as concerns over his health and prolonged detention grow.
Prominent political activists, medics, and ordinary citizens have joined the online movement, condemning what they describe as an unlawful abduction and detention.
Many are also questioning the role of Kenyan authorities in Besigye's incarceration, given that opposition leader was reportedly taken in Nairobi before being transported to Uganda.
