On Friday afternoon, the leadership of the Pan-African Pyramid (PAP) and the Pan-African Movement–Uganda Chapter paid a courtesy visit to the Iranian Embassy in Kampala, delivering a strong message of solidarity with the people of Iran following what they described as unjustified and devastating attacks by the state of Israel, allegedly backed by the United States.
The delegation, led by PAP Founding Speaker and Chairman Andrew Irumba Katusabe with Pan-African Movement–Uganda Chapter Chairman – Comrade Dan Rugarama, expressed their deepest condolences to the victims and families affected by the escalating conflict.
In a press statement released after the meeting, Irumba described the attacks as senseless acts of violence and accused the United States of playing a hypocritical role — fueling conflict through arms and political backing while posturing as a global peacemaker.
He argued that the crisis between Israel and Iran, much like the ongoing plight of Palestinians, must be seen not just as regional issues but as affronts to universal human dignity. He stated that even though Iran, Palestine, and Israel lie outside Africa’s borders, the pain, bloodshed, and loss of innocent life affect the collective conscience of humanity.
In the same statement, Irumba highlighted that true Pan-Africanism has never been about race or nationality, but about the defense of humanity, equity, and moral integrity. He reflected on Africa’s own historical struggles with imperialism and silence in the face of oppression, asserting that the continent cannot afford to look away while the world burns.
The message coming out of Ugandan Pan Africanists reaffirmed the idea that no human life holds more value than another — that a child buried in Gaza, Tel Aviv, or Tehran is equally worthy of mourning, and that genuine peace is born not from bombs and proxy wars, but from honest dialogue, justice, and truth.
The Pan-African Pyramid called on the African Union to adopt a bold moral posture and actively participate in international peace efforts. Irumba further urged the United Nations to end what he termed as complicity through selective justice, and asked all people of conscience — regardless of religion, race, or region — to rise above divisive politics and embrace a “Humanity First” mindset.
Echoing the timeless words of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Irumba reminded the world that “injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.” As civilian deaths mount and regional tensions spiral, he called for immediate de-escalation and a renewed commitment to diplomacy in the Middle East.
The delegation’s visit ended with a heartfelt plea: Let the world speak with one voice — stop the killings, stop the lies, and choose peace. From Uganda, from Africa, the message was clear. It is time for humanity to rise above politics. It is time for truth to triumph over propaganda. And above all, it is time for peace to win — for once, and for all.
