Tiktoker Nabugodi Emmanuel receives a 32-month prison sentence for attacking President Museveni

Content Creator Nabugodi Emmanuel at the start of this week was sentenced to two years and eight months in prison for attacking President Museveni.

Nabugodi Emmanuel was arrested a while back after making and disseminating several videos seemingly demeaning the current president of Uganda.

After being arraigned before the Entebbe Chief Magistrate Stella Amabilisi, Nabugodi pleaded guilty, and was immediately sent to sleep behind Kigo Prison cells for over two years.

I hope that by the time the convict leaves prison, he will have learned that abusing people in the name of getting content is bad. Said Magistrate Amabilisi.

The 21-year-old content creator now has 14 days to appeal the ruling.
