Museveni further reveals that the incident seems to be a terrorist act but his government get the perpetrators.
“The Police Specialists are on the ground investigating the whole incident. They will give us more information later. They will also give guidelines on vigilance by the public dealing with these possible terrorists.
The public should not fear, we shall defeat this criminality like we have defeated all the other criminality committed by the pigs who don’t respect life.”- Museveni Tweeted
The incident comes at the heels of a terrorist alert issued by London and Paris and police was urged Ugandans to be vigilant.
It’s not the first time Uganda is experiencing such incidents, the deadliest one being in 2010 where over 70 people died and several injured while watching world cup finals at Kyadondo and Kabalagala.
