Ce vendredi 4 juin 2021, des journalistes de médias en ligne, qui tentaient de relayer des informations sur les affrontements entre gangs armés à l'entrée sud de la capitale, ont été agressés par des hommes armés au niveau de Martissant 7 et 23. D'après l’une des victimes, Guerking Souffrant, les agressions verbales ont été suivies d’agressions physiques.
The post Insécurité : des journalistes de médias en lignes victimes à Martissant appeared first on Haiti24.
Critics have called it a stunt to invite sympathy. Yet Amuriat says campaigning without shoes is a protest and that those who do not get its symbolism are missing a point.
Uganda is due to hold a general election on January 14. Amuriat and another opposition candidate, Bobi Wine have had their rallies violently dispersed by security forces or been arrested.
In mid-November, scores of people were killed as security forces attempted to quell protests against the arrest and detention of Bobi Wine.
Police has accused the candidates of addressing huge gatherings in contravention of regulations on COVID-19 prevention.
Swollen feet
In an interview with one of the dailies in Uganda, Amuriat said his feet hurt a lot and has to pour cold water on them in between campaign stops for some relief.
Doctors have cautioned him on the potential danger of contracting tetanus from cuts to his feet.
Yet Amuriat remains adamant. He says by refusing to wear shoes, he’s standing in solidarity with people whose wealth and opportunities have been stolen by the country’s longtime ruler Yoweri Museveni.
