Knowledge is power. Information is power. The secreting and manipulation of knowledge or information may be an act of tyranny camouflaged as humility---Robin Morgan

There is no doubt, Andrew Mwenda is an intelligent, cunning, and highly educated fellow who does lots of research. However, using his wide knowledge to twist facts and intimidate/bully many of those who pay attention to him is not proper conduct. A man of his wit keeping a blind eye to the injustices done by many African President to their people and instead choses to speak for them. Whether they pay him or threaten him(no one knows) to speak for his comfort, and security but not for the rest of Ugandans.

Why does NTV continue to deal with this m,an when it is clear that he is very biased, he lacks integrity, he doesn't have ugandans' interest at heart, he is not decisive (as his positions about key issues keep on changing overtime).

Uganda in its current state could really use a man like him to champion for democracy, constitutionalism, good governance among many other necessities that Uganda as a country needs to thrive but he instead choses to sleep with the devil. To manipulate Ugandans. True he is an Impeccable Orator but, he choses to speak for hire not justice.

Therefore if anyone shares the same thoughts about Andrew Mwenda like me, Sign this petition and get him fired from NTV. So that atleast, he can stop poisoning the minds of Ugandans with toxic manipulative propaganda.

He simply misuses the platform to unfairly promote Kagame & consequentially M7. I genuinely believe he didn't initially setout to pamper M7 but there was no way he could promote Kagame and survive M7's wrath so he had to dually propaganda.

I hate the way he praises Rwanda's governance ignoring human rights abuses, arbitrary arrests and murders, very partial court system and cruel treatment of political prisoners like the languishing Victoire Ingabire who he has never talked about.

I used to dream of working for him. Then i did and I realised the discrepancy between truth and reality. Then NTV newsnight exposed him for the intellectual bully that he really is. It is time to say No Andrew Mwenda. You are not right

Take this man off, he is manipulative, self seeking, biased and his principals of governance are baseless without considering the laws of the land. True politics makes the law but custodians of the law should not adjust to fit their stay in office

I have stopped watching news night long ago because of the biases that Andrew openly exhibits during the show. Now that the position of presidential Secretary is vacant I think he's batter place to take that position. Save us NTV from this boring man.

I think NTV as a station has its hands tied behind its back. For a company that had initially built its credibility on exposing sheer truths, regardless of whom it hurt (of which the government often fell victim); we are all aware of the government's quick and cowardly reaction directed towards the closure, supression and censorships of many of Nation Media Group's media houses. So i think with the agreed re-opening of those media houses, as well as to be enabled to "operate freely".... i suspect the government must have coerced NMG to put pen on paper, agreeing to a at least a few deals that would be in its own favour. And one of those deals would later birth what we see today in Andrew Mwenda's NewsNight show. So i hope you can all see that its quite beyond Ms. Aggie Konde. And i hope, too, that its clear that can its the government that started the whole affair of what is now largely called "Never tolerating the opinions that are different from ours."

Mwenda must go. He covers up his ignorance by pretending to know much and talking endlessly.
