Ugandan: Youth Campaigning Against - Proposed Scrapping Of Presidential Age-Limit .
At least 14 Youth Have Been Arrested In Kampala,The Capital Of Uganda, while Campaigning Against The Proposed Scrapping Of Presidential Age-limit For Yoweri Museveni To Contest In The Next Election.
The police bundled them into a truck, and did not give the reason's they arrested the activists who were dressed in all-white, sharing fliers against the proposed constitutional amendment.
This is not the first time campaigners against the amendment have been arrested.
In July, some youth opposition groups launched a similar campaign and were arrested in the process for unlawful assembly.
The age limit for a candidate to stand for president is currently 75 and President Yoweri Museveni, who is now 73, will be two years older than the limit in the 2021 election.
Uganda’s deputy attorney general, Mwesigwa Rukutana had denied that the proposal to scrap the age limit is a ploy to allow Museveni to stay on as president.
