How is this considered violent?

This is just normal political discourse. The President of Uganda wants to remain in office until the day he dies, a most reasonable goal. To do this he must amend the constitution, a perfectly legal thing to do. The opposition MP's stand in his way so it was necessary keep them away from parliament, through legitimate arrests by security forces. If they persist in opposition they may need peacefully defenestrated. If popular protests ensue they will need to be put down by such reasonable means as pepper spray, rubber bullets, water cannons, tear gas, machetes, machine guns, grenade launchers, mortar rounds, tanks, barrel bombs, and (if he can find them) chemical weapons and tactical nukes.

What in all this constitutes violence and repression?

I assume you're joking, though these days it's hard to be sure.
