KAMPALA, Uganda (AP) — A Ugandan official says two opposition activists were arrested outside the U.S. Embassy Tuesday while demonstrating their support for Donald Trump.
Emilian Kayima, a spokesman for Ugandan police, said the two men are likely to be charged with the offense of unlawful assembly for demonstrating without prior authorization of the police.
The men are members of Uganda’s Democratic Party, one of several opposition groups.
The local Daily Monitor newspaper reported the two arrested were part of a larger group that carried placards including one saying “A Vote For Trump Is A Vote Against African Dictatorship!”
Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni has held power here for three decades.
Following disputed elections in February, Kizza Besigye, the main opposition figure, was charged with treason.

Those guys are very confused, they already got their Trump
For a Trump demonstration in Uganda, they were missing two things:
“Black love Trump” signs, held by real black people; “Gays love Trump”.
The person holding the 2nd sign is promptly sent to jail for 30 years for promoting sodomy.
There are too many reasons to loathe Christian conservative Republicans like Hitler, but their promotion of death penalty anti-gay laws in Africa is close to the top of MY list.
That last sentence only has ten words in it, but some of them must have radically different meanings than I’m used to.
Isn’t a law against demonstrating without prior government approval one of the things on the GOP to-do list?
