- A video circulating on social media claims to show David Lewis Rubongoya and Medard Ssegona engaged in a heated verbal exchange inside a courtroom.
The video was posted on X by an account with the handle of @KamogaMunawa. The video bears the branding of Nile Post.
David Lewis Rubongoya did post on his X, a still photograph showing himself and Medard Ssegona speaking to each other in court ahead of lawyer and Kampala Lord Mayor Erias Lukwago appearing in court.
Claim
A video circulating on social media shows David Lewis Rubongoya and Medard Ssegona involved in a heated verbal argument inside a courtroom.
The clip uses Nile Post's branding, giving the impression that it is authentic news footage produced and published by the media outlet.
Verdict: False.
The video is digitally manipulated and falsely presented as authentic Nile Post footage.
A review of Nile Post's official social media platforms shows that the outlet has never published such a video.
The original content published by Nile Post was a still image showing David Lewis Rubongoya and Medard Ssegona in conversation in court ahead of Erias Lukwago's appearance, not a heated argument.
The image captures a normal conversation and does not depict any confrontation or argument.
