Moses Nsubuga

Nsubuga, a musician and activist, was arrested and charged for allegedly using derogatory terms in a song to refer to President Yoweri Museveni on October 4, 2018. He was released on police bond the following day. If convicted, he faces a fine and up to one year in jail. Nsubuga, known professionally as Viboyo, has continued to release politically conscious music, including his annual “rap up” recaps of events in Uganda, suggesting that the case may have stalled without formal closure.
