1 | Uganda: Minister Claims Opposition Using Social Media to Prepare for War | Ogandà: Lazain'ny Minisitra ho Mampiasa Valantserasera ny Mpanohitra Hanomanana Ady |
2 | This page is part of our special coverage Uganda: Walk to Work Protests. The opposition groups in Uganda staged the famous walk to work protests in April this year, which saw President Yoweri Museveni's government unleash violence against unarmed protestors. | Nikarakara ilay dia an-tongotra handeha hiasa ny antoko mpanohitra maromaro tany Ongandà tamin'ny volana Avril tamin'ity taona ity, izay nahitana ny fitondran'ny filoha Yoweri Museveni mampihatra herisetra amin'ny mpanao fihetsiketsehana tsy manam-piadiana. |
3 | Ten Ugandans lost their lives mostly by bullets in the city protests. | Ongandey 10 no matin'ny bala nandritra ny fihetsehana an-tanàna. |
4 | Protests were about the rising fuel and food prices. | Ny anton'ny hetsika moa dia noho ny fiakaran'ny vidin'ny solika sy ny sakafo. |
5 | After months of silence, the current economic situation which has worsened since April is seeing the opposition planning to re-launch walk to work protests. | Taorian'ny volana vitsy nanginana, ny fiharatsian'ny toe-karena hatramin'ny volana aprily teo no hitan'ny mpanohitra hamelomana indray ny hetsika dia an-tongotra hiasa. |
6 | On Wednesday August 10, 2011, members of the opposition under Activists for Change held a rally in Masaka town where a 2-year-old girl was killed during the last protests. | Tamin'ny alarobia 10 aogositra dia nanomana fivoriana tao Masaka, tanàna nahitana fahafatesan-jaza roa taona nandritra ny fihetsiketsehana iray, ny mpanohitra ao ambany fanevan'ny Activist for Change. |
7 | The police were quick to disperse the activists before opposition leader Dr. Kizza Besigye and other political figures could join the rally. | Mailaka dia mailaka ny polisy nanaparitaka ny mpitolona nialoha ny hahatongavan'ny mpitarika ny mpanohitra ny Dr. Kizza Besigye sy ny mpitarika politika hafa teo an-toerana. |

10 | Hours after the protest began in Masaka, Uganda's Minister for Security Muruli Mukasa told the media that protesters were terrorists and that the Ugandan opposition is using Twitter, Facebook and YouTube to wage a campaign against the security forces and to “psychologically prepare the people, especially young people, for armed insurrection”. | Ora vitsy taorian'ny hetsika tao Masaka, dia nilaza ny minisitry ny filaminana Ongandey Muruli Mukasa tamin'ny gazety fa mpampihorohoro ny mpanao fihetsiketsehana ary mampiasa Twitter, Facebook ary YouTube ny mpanohitra hanaovana fanentanana fanoherana ny mpitandro ny filaminana sy manomana ara-tsaina ny olona, indrindra fa ny tanora amin'ny fikomiana amim-piadiana”. |
11 | Ugandans were quick to react on Twitter. | Haingana ihany koa ny valin-kafatra avy amin'ny Ongandey tao amin'ny Twitter. |
12 | @IDEASUG said social media is becoming more dangerous than terrorist groups: | @IDEASUG nilazas fa mampidi-doza kokoa noho ny vondrona mampihorohoro ny valantserasera: |
13 | @RosebellK i love liberalization-free mkt econ. | Tiako ny fanalalahana - ny tsena malalaka. |
14 | Social media is fast becomg more dangerous than terror gps…#Al-socialmedia declared threat | Vetivety dia mampididoza noho ny vondrona mampihorohoro ny valantserasera… Ambara ho loza mihantona avokoa ny valantserasera rehetra. |
15 | @awetaka noted that the fact that Uganda government officials don't use social media shows their fears are about something they know nothing about. | Ny marina tsy ahitana ny fitondrana mampiasa ny valantserasera dia noho ny tahony zavatra tsy ahalalany na inona na inona |
16 | @pjkanywa wondered why government was quick to call protesters terrorists yet they have yet to put up a real trial for those who were behind the July 11, 2010 Kampala bombings that killed over 70 people. | Fa maninona ny fitondrana no mailaka miantso ho mpampihorohoro ny mpanohitra nefa ry zareo aza mbola hanangana fitsarana tena izy hitadiavana izay ambadiky ny fanapoahana baomba an'i Kampala izay nahafatesana olona mihoatra ny 70 tamin'ny 11 jolay 2010. |
17 | @Opiaiya compared the reaction of the UK government after London riots and the claims of Uganda government that ‘terrorist' are using social media to prepare for war: | Nampitaha ny fihetsiky ny fitondrana anglisy taorian'ny rotaka tao Londres sy ny filazan'ny fitondrana Ogandey milaza ny valantserasera ho ‘mpampihorohoro' manomana ady i @Opiaiya: |
18 | Social media worries in #Uganda as former colony #Britain mulls net crackdownhttp://bbc.in/qpMnn1 | mampatahotra ny valantserasera eto Ongandà ka amin'ny maha-zanatany anglisy azy dia eritreretina ny famotehana mivantana. |
19 | The opposition in Uganda uses social media better than the government: | Ny mpanohitra ao Oganda no tsara fampiasa valantserasera kokoa noho ny governemanta: |
20 | No doubt the Uganda opposition uses social media much better than the government. | Tsy isalasalana fa mahay mampiasa ny valantserasera kokoa noho ny eo amin'ny fitondrana ny mpanohitra ao Ongandà. |
21 | We have seen top opposition leaders updating their facebook and twitter accounts as they are in running battles with the police. | Efa nahita ny mpitarika mpanohitra milaza vaovao ao amin'ny kaonty Facebook sy/na Twitter aho mandritra ny fifananjehana amin'ny polisy. |
22 | But government's reaction to social media has been slow ad hence they see the opposition having some good advantage in the race to put out information. | Saingy niadam-piasa momba ny resaka valantserasera ny governemanta ka hitany fa efa manana tombondahiny ny mpanohitra raha eo amin'ny hazakazaka fanomezam-baovao. |
23 | I remember in April when the protests were on high, the presidential press secretary told the Guardian that they were not bothered about the impact of social media because “farmers in Uganda don't know what it is.” | Tsaroako tamin'ny volana Avrily raha niaka-danja ny fihetsiketseham-panoherana dia nilaza tamin'ny Guardian ny sekretera ao amin'ny fiadidiana ny repoblika (filohampirenena) fa tsy mampatahotra azy ny fiantraikan'ny valantserasera satria “tsy mahalala an'izany ny tantsaha any Ongandà” |
24 | Last month, @dispatchug produced a random pick of top 100 Twitter users in Uganda. | Tamin'ny volana lasa, @dispatchug namoaka tsongan'ny mpisera Twitter zato voalohany ao Ongandà. |
25 | Most of them are professionals, politicians and citizen journalists who are interested in using the platform to further discussions on the state of the country. | Ny ankamaroan'izy ireo dia manampahaizana, mpanao politika ary olo-tsotra tia mamoaka vaovao izay liana amin'ny fampiasana ny sehatra hisian'ny adihevitra momba ny toerana misy ny firenena. |
26 | President Museveni's Twitter account has a little over 1,000 followers. | Ny Filoha Museveni ao amin'ny kaonty Twitter dia mihoatra kely ny 1000 ny mpamaky azy. |
27 | The Democratic Party leader and former presidential candidate Norbert Mao also keeps his tweets flowing most of the day. | Ny mpitarika ny antoko demokratika sady ea nirotsaka hofidiana ho filoham-pirenena Norbert Mao ihany koa dia miezaka ny misiokantsera mandritra ny andro amin'ny ankapobeny. |
28 | He has about 900 followers. | Eo ho eo amin'ny 900 eo ny mpamaky azy. |
29 | Other opposition figures like @AnneMugisha from Forum for Democratic Change keep their Twitter and Facebook updates even during their running battles with the police. | Olo-malaza ao amin'ny fanoherana hafa tahaka an'i @AnneMugisha izay avy ao amin'ny Forum ho amin'ny Fiovana Demokratika dia manome vaovao farany hatrany ao amin'ny Twitter sy Facebook eny fa na dia mandritra ny fifanenjehana amin'ny polisy aza. |
30 | The most popular opposition leader @KizzaBesigye has more than 500 followers but has not been active for the last couple of months. | Ny tena malaza amin'ny mpitarika politika ao amin'ny fanoherana @KizzaBesigye dia manana mpanaraka mihoatra ny 500 saingy tsy nahitam-baovao nandritra ny troa volana farany. |
31 | His Facebook profile is regularly updated. | Ny momba azy ao amin'ny Facebook kosa dia ahitam-baovao hatrany. |
32 | Activists for Change group has an active presence on Facebook where many photos showing police brutality during the walk to work protests were posted. | Ny vondrona Activists for Change koa dia hita mavitrika ao amin'ny Facebook izay ahitana sary maro mampiseho ny herisetra ataon'ny polisy mandritra ny fihetsiketseham-panoherana. |
