In an African culture, they say even if you sleep with your mother-in-law under the water, the secret will still come out, and the Bible says whatever you do in the darkness will always be exposed.
This is what has happened to NBS TV journalist and news anchor Canary Mugume, who has finally been exposed as the key liaison between the protestors and the funding from foreign agents to fuel the “March to Parliament” riots.
According to the closed sources that preferred anonymity, Canary Mugume has been exposed to having received funding to the tune of UGX 300 million to coordinate internet influencers-now-turned activists to cause violent riots in Kampala under the pretext of demonstrating against corruption.
Canary was quizzed by the state house officials at their Lumumba Avenue office in Kampala over his role in protests and his transactions with the foreign agent.
Canary, who admitted having received funding, pleaded for pardon and offered to expose the secrets of all foreign agents funding the march to parliament riots.
He also requested that all the charges against the detainees be dropped by the state and offered to mediate the release of his colleagues on bail.
He also pleaded for the release of the sponsored media activists.
Canary Mugume joins a list of foreign-funded Ugandan journalists, such as Solomon Sserwanja, who has been receiving funding from the European Union, US, French, and UK embassies under the guise of promoting human rights in Uganda.
