Police has arrested Makerere University researcher Dr. Stella Nyanzi on allegations of inciting violence.
According to Kampala metropolitan police spokesperson Luke Owoyesigire, Nyanzi was arrested today, Tuesday together with her an unidentified driver and passenger.
Owoyesigire says the driver who has declined to reveal his identities to the police, was arrested for a traffic charge. He alleges that the driver failed to comply with traffic regulations and inconsiderate use of motor vehicle and obstruction of the road.
Owoyesigire says that Nyanzi incited violence as she caused chaos around Naguru. The three are currently being held at Jinja road police station.
Nyanzi, however, says she and some members of her group had been invited by the deputy inspector general of police, Sabiiti Muzeyi for a meeting at Naguru police headquarters. However, she was denied entrance and later rounded up.
"I have parked my car across the entrance to the police. If I do not go in, I need the deputy IGP to come and chase me away in person. I am in my car playing loud music." Nyanzi said earlier in her social media post.
Nyanzi, alongside a group of youths named, 'The Alternatives' have since last week been protesting against the rampant kidnap, sexual abuse and murder of people especially women victims.
Last week, the group held a protest at Naguru police headquarters and parliament of Uganda where they demonstrated carrying coffins and placards.

Freedom of speech becomes violance to them, when in actual sense themselves are the very breeding grounds of violance forgeting that every thing in this world has a limit society has reached that limit.
Two days later Abiriga gets shot and put inside a real coffin
Someone should be taken to Butabika for mental evaluation.
Only this time , that somebody is not Dr. Stella Nyanzi.
But of course Museveni is the owner of our country & free to use Ugandans against one another!
Which educated Ugandan will be arrested next for driving on Museveni's streets?
When Musevnei will be constitutional owner of Uganda, will he pay Ugandans in his police/army & will he still need tribal leaders in posts when now he arrests Dr Nanzi...for driving through his streets in his country where Ugandans are illegal migrants-intruders...?
When will Ugandans UNITE to throw the demon out?
I was beginning to fear that the snake had successfully injected her with his venomous neutralizer.
It is almost amuzing to see that the fellows that arrested her last week for protesting against kidnappings and murder are the ones who cried loudest when one of them was murdered.
Even Kasule Lumumba who declared that they who have the guns would kill our children found herself standing next to Abiriga`s orphans. Somehow , she missed the irony.
She is too thick-headed to realize how her violent utterencies might have contributed to the demise of Abiriga and othe victims of violence
Fear and panic seems to have changed camp.Does it signify the approach of a big event?
What about the man who is running down the country because he loves to dance while the others have stopped!
