Wife to Opposition strongman Kizza Besigye, Winnie Byanyima has been on a massive Twitter twar with seemingly everyone who replies to her tweet.

It started out when Byanyima made a tweet about her son’s looks.

Some Ugandans don’t like Anselm Besigye’s long dreadlocks and hate his clothes! I think he is gorgeous! I am his mum,” said Byanyima in a tweet.

I wear trousers and shirts, keep my hair short, enjoy a pint in a pub, bike, get angry and express it, look men in the eyes and tell them my truth… how does that sound? masculine?
Feminine, masculine & everything else – we are human beings & That’s what gives us dignity. https://t.co/aKQDxPimuF
