BUHWEJU, UGANDA – We, the concerned citizens of Buhweju district, are deeply concerned about the reported use of abusive and embarrassing language by Ameria Kantona against her opponents, particularly young people. As a community, we expect leaders to uphold high standards of integrity, respect, and dignity.
The Law and Leadership Standards, including Electoral Commission Guidelines and Uganda’s Electoral Laws, prohibit candidates from using abusive or insulting language.
Leaders are expected to adhere to principles of good governance, accountability, and respect for human rights.
We urge Ameria Kantona to retract her statements, apologize, and commit to respectful engagements. We demand that all aspiring leaders uphold the highest standards of integrity, respect, and dignity.
