Police which says the scene of crime was tampered with says it collected some cartridge and projectiles from the scene and ballistic experts have since concluded that the gun which in the Bugingo shooting is the same that killed blogger Isma Olaxes in May last year. His bullet riddled car as transferred to the directorate of criminal investigations in Kibuli from the headquarters in Naguru.

Speaking at the police’s weekly press briefing at the force’s headquarters in Naguru, police mouthpiece Fred Enanga says a huge cash has been released to pay any one who has information regarding the killer gun or even the assailants that attempted to kill the vocal pastor who supports president Msueveni and Muhoozi Keinerugaba without fear or favor but with flavor.

The army has since taken over Bugingo’s security detail at his home in Namayumba, Wakiso district, at Canaan land and even a his salt media base in Lungujja. As police continue searching for the assailants including checking CCTV footages on cameras around, Frank Gashumba has already accused Bobi Wine’s NUP for being behind the incident indicating that they want to kill Bugingo because he supports president Museveni.

The police has announced a 20 million shilling bounty for anyone with information that will lead to the arrest of people who were involved in attacking Pastor Aloysius Bugingo#NTVNews | https://t.co/sQSTEycCTx pic.twitter.com/hQWEr3pwQD

The day 2nd November 2023 sounds bells of grief and sorry in the family of slain business man Henry Katanga who died mysterious following a domestic blow at his Mbuya based home in Nakawa division.

Court on November 21 directed that Molly Katanga Bananukye the wife to the deceased appears in court today 8th January 2023 after skipping sessions twice. And the suspects who were remanded to Luzira prisons were also set to appear today.

It’s not clear what exactly happened but immediately after the shooting of Katanga, his wife Molly Bananukye went into comma and has been hospitalized at IHK in Kampala and reportedly undergone several surgeries.

Following the incident, Molly Katanga’s mother Mirieli Kyobuhoro hired top city lawyers in addition to the others that the family hired. Among these is former Deputy Attorney General Mwesigwa Rukutana who are making sure that Molly Bananukye and her daughter Martha all go to prison other than hiding at IHK hospital. Kyobuhoro says if Molly and her daughter need medical attention, prisons is well facilitated to care for them.

She was supposed to appear in court today but her lawyers came with documents from ministry of Health indicating that their client Molly Bananukye is still sick and not yet recovered having undergone five surgeries.

Now the Nakawa Chief Magistrate court has issued an arrest warrant for Martha Nkwanzi and extended Molly Katanga’s court summons as the other suspects arrested before were returned to Luzira prisons following their failed bail hearing and will instead wait a bit longer until January 2024 when their bail hearing will be brought forward for hearing.

Martha has been skipping court three times after giving birth to her second child, a baby boy but her grand mother Kyobuhoro who i still bitter about how her son died mysteriously says Martha should go to jail and breastfeed her baby from there.

When Katanga died, three people were arrested and have been on remand since then, these include Dr Charles Otai, George Amanyire who is a shamba boy, Patricia Kakwanza who is Molly Katanga’s eldest daughter.

This is a high end legal battle as both families are well connected to government and are all being bank rolled by top governments which will make it a bit hard for the battle to come to a conclusion very well.

FOOTBALL TO COMEDY: See Former Arsenal Star Living New Life As a Stand-up Comedian

GLENN HELDER was a practical joker during his time at Arsenal before choosing to make people laugh for a living. The former Gunners star launched a career as a stand-up comedian after retiring from football.

Helder was a Dutch international before retiring aged 41 in 2010 and going on to work as a musician and guest speaker alongside his comedy exploits.

He had always been a joker in the dressing room, though, including during his time in North London.

Asked whether he was the funniest in the dressing room, he told Metro Nieuws in 2016: “Well, let me put it this way, I certainly wasn’t the quietest, haha.

“I have always played with nice guys at all clubs, up to the Dutch national team.

“Some people need half an hour of silence before the match, but I didn’t need that. I knew what I could do and showed it on the field. But I laughed a lot in the dressing room.

“When I came to Sparta as a rookie, I certainly had respect for the elders, but I was the one who turned the lights on and off.

“To put it mildly, I was more likely to be at the front than the back when it came to joking. During my time at Arsenal they took terrible revenge on me, you know.”

As for how he got into comedy after retiring, he explained: “I was asked to be on Comedy Central’s Celebrity Stand-Up program and that was actually the first time I did that.

“I’m already on a tour with FC De Rebellin, visiting almost all the theatres. That’s a lot of fun to do. Of course, you also talk about the stupid things you’ve done in life and those are actually laughable enough.

“The difference with stand-up is that you have to tell it in a way that makes people laugh. It needs to be a little tighter, but according to others I have a talent for it. And I think it is an honor to be on stage with Roué Verveer.”

Helder continued: “I like humor, but I didn’t go looking for it or anything. I was asked to do it and it’s just fun to do. I notice that it doesn’t bother me.

“Look, if you ask me about the construction of a NASA rocket, I will decline, but I can do this. I know what I can do, but I also know very well what I cannot do.”

The 55-year-old spent two years with Arsenal between 1995 and 1997, scoring once in 49 appearances for the Gunners. He also had spells in Portugal, China and Hungary as well as his native Netherlands, for whom he won four caps.

WARDROBE MALFUNCTIONS: Mikel Arteta’s Trouser Rips Apart During Arsenal’s Clash With Liverpool

Viewers wondered if the Gunners’ boss “had “ripped” his slacks where he would least want to as he sat in the dugout during Sunday’s 2-0 home defeat against Liverpool.

But it was split decision over what could have caused the grey patch on the crotch area of the Spaniard’s clothing.

AD: FOR THE BEST WEB HOSTING, WEB DESIGNS AND DOMAIN NAMES, CALL OR WHATSAPP +256758201313

One viewer summed up the mystery: “What’s going on with Arteta’s trousers?

And unfortunately many of the responses were no less certain.

“Has Arteta got a split in his trousers,” asked one.

And another observer claimed the pressing matter had left him “crying” with laughter as he pondered: “Has Arteta ripped his trousers?” Many fans were similarly creased-up with amusement.

But on the pitch Arsenal took their eye off the ball, at least in front of goal. Poor finishing cost them dear as Liverpool sneaked into the fourth round with a late double.

A Trent Alexander-Arnold free-kick glanced in off the head of Gunners’ defender Jakub Kiwior on 80 minutes. Then Luis Diaz strode away to neatly round off a counter-attack five minutes into stoppage time.

One fan responded to the Gunners’ waste of 18 attempts on goal by posting: “I’m actually worried we actually have lost the ability to score.”

And amid pleas for Arsenal to splash out on new strikers, Arteta must wonder how his current bunch failed to trouser at least one of their five efforts on target.

Safair claimed the second spot on the list with an impressive on-time arrival rate of 92.36%, while Kenya Airways secured the tenth position with a commendable 71.86% on-time arrival rate.

Cirium defines “on-time” as arriving within 14 minutes and 59 seconds of the airline’s scheduled arrival time. The carriers also have to meet specific capacity and network requirements to be considered a “global” airline.

In the MEA rankings was Oman Air (WY), claiming the top spot with an outstanding on-time arrival rate of 92.53%. Commendably, Oman and Safair were the only airlines in the report to secure an on-time arrival rate of more than 90%.

Cirium’s other 2023 winners in the MEA region include Royal Jordanian with an on-time arrival rate of 87.51%, Qatar Airways at 85.11%, Etihad Airways achieving 82.90%, Saudia with 89.21%, Middle East Airlines at 79.15%, Emirates at 78.48%, and Kuwait Airways with a rate of 73.18%.

Cirium not only based its winner on punctuality but also the “complexity of its operations and capacity to provide more benefit to passengers and airports,” Cirium CEO Jeremy Bowen stated.

Avianca Airlines of Colombia earned the title of the world’s most punctual global airline, boasting an on-time arrival rate of 85.73%. The data used for the evaluation is sourced from over 600 different sources.

Both Safair from South Africa and Kenya Airways were among the 10 best-performing airlines in Africa in 2023, according to a separate report by Skytrax.

Safair (South Africa)

On-time ranking: 2
On-time arrival: 92.36%
Tracked flight: 88.81%
Completion factor: 99.91%

AC Milan Eyeing Aston Villa Striker Jhon Duran

Aston Villa are willing to listen to offers for Jhon Duran if they can find a suitable replacement this window, and the Colombian has interest from AC Milan.

However, the club may encounter difficulty finding a candidate that can offer a robust back-up option to first-choice striker Ollie Watkins during the January window.

Watkins has been in blistering form this season, effectively shutting Duran out of Emery’s immediate plans.

Mail Sport also understands that the head coach and his player have sometimes not seen eye to eye, with the 20-year-old thought to be frustrated with decisions to substitute him at various points during Villa’s European season.

The Villans have sold Finn Azaz to Middlesbrough for £2million but he is not eligible to face his former club in the FA Cup on Saturday.

The player had previously been on loan at Plymouth Argyle for the last two seasons, and was described by then-head coach Steve Schumacher as ‘the most intelligent footballer I have ever met’.

Continuing to manage their outgoings, Villa, who have expressed interest in Crystal Palace and West Ham target Ronnie Edwards at Peterborough United, have allowed left-back Ben Chrisene to join Blackburn on loan.

Last season the 19-year-old was on loan at Kilmarnock before being sidelined nearly a year ago when he tore his medial ligament.

Chrisene has two years left on his current deal with Villa, signed under then-head coach Steven Gerrard.

Rovers captain Lewis Travis is to join Ipswich on a season-long loan, jumping up the Championship table in the process to join the promotion-challengers.

Blackburn head coach Jon Dahl Tomasson admitted that the move had roots in the club’s financial position.

‘He’s one of the more expensive boys in our group, so (the move) will free some space up in the financial department to get some players in as well,’ Tomasson said.

Another Football Boss Slams VAR

Verona director of sport Sean Sogliano slammed the match officials after Inter Milan’s 2-1 victory at the San Siro.

VAR opted not to intervene when Alessandro Bastoni looked to have committed a foul shortly before Davide Frattesi’s 93rd-minute winner.

And Sogliano expressed his rage at the decision.

He said in a post-match news conference: “I am sorry to come here and not be able to talk about football.

“Verona come here every year and lose at San Siro. I realise Inter are a great team and I hope they win the Scudetto but today there was a huge lack of respect towards my club.

“We all make mistakes — referees, players, coaches, journalists and directors. But what happened today is absurd.

“I am truly let down. I tend to trust VAR but today what happened was shameful.”

Lautaro Martinez had opened the scoring after 13 minutes before Thomas Henry equalised in the second half, leaving Sogliano disgruntled to see his team leave Milan empty handed.
