Police in Greater Masaka has summoned Kawempe North MP Hon Muhamad Ssegirinya and Makindye West MP Hon Allan Ssewanyana over matters related to murders that have been going on in the area.
The legislators, according to a copy of summons this website saw, must appear at Masaka Police Station on Monday 6th September 2021 at 10000 hours and record statements before Deputy Senior Supretendant of Police Moses Taremwa.
In the copy of summons signed by the Director of Criminal Investigations Paul Kato Tumuhimbise, the MPs are being investigated in relation to murders that took place in Greater Masaka during the months of July and August.
Reacting to the summons, the NUP president, Robert Ssentamu Kyagulanyi said the police action was predictable and a plan to implicate NUP leaders in the ongoing spate of murders in Greater Masaka.
“As we speak, Hon. Muhammad Segirinya (MP Kawempe North) and Hon. Allan Ssewanyana (MP Makindye West) have been summoned to appear before CID next Monday in relation to the ongoing spate of murders. Anyone can predict where this is going, and what their grand objective is.” Kyagulanyi Tweeted on Friday.
“Countrywomen and men, as predicted, the Museveni regime has actualized their plan of implicating NUP leaders in the ongoing spate of murders in Greater Masaka. When Chris Baryomunsi said this last week, it looked like a joke. But as we now know, anything is possible in Uganda.” adds.
Kyagulanyi however said the attempt by government to implicate NUP leaders is bound to fail.
“What I can say without contradiction, is that this new attempt will fail, like all those before. Our people just need to be vigilant and remain alert.” He noted.
