Ugandan protesters who said they would press ahead with a banned anti-corruption march on Tuesday are “playing with fire”, the country’s president warned. “Some elements have been planning illegal demonstrations, riots,” President Yoweri Museveni said in a televised address late Saturday. Museveni has ruled the East African country with an iron fist since 1986. He said the protesters included “elements working for foreign interests”, without elaborating. Earlier Saturday, Ugandan police had informed organisers it would not permit the planned protest in the capital Kampala as authorities had intelligence that “some elements were trying to take advantage of the demonstration to…

A video has surfaced showing Pastor Ng’ang’a engaging in a unique form of protest training. In the video, he is seen instructing Kenyans on how to perform somersaults, a surprising addition to their demonstration tactics. The training session appears to be in preparation for a planned protest on Tuesday, where participants are expected to occupy Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) and other strategic locations across the country.
