President Yoweri Museveni has directed the Chief of Defence Forces, Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba, to establish an inter-agency security committee to decisively address the growing cases of electricity infrastructure vandalism in central Uganda.
The President’s directive follows a spate of vandalism incidents that have left several areas in Nakasongola, Luwero, and Nakaseke districts in darkness due to the destruction of electric poles and theft of wires.
While addressing the media at the State Lodge in Luwero Town during his Parish Development Model (PDM) tour yesterday, Museveni condemned the acts of sabotage and hinted at the possible use of a shoot-to-kill strategy to deter the vandals. Mr. Museveni speaking…
The President was responding to concerns from journalists about what actions the government is taking to stop the persistent vandalism, which has paralyzed business operations and disrupted livelihoods in the affected areas.
Museveni said he had instructed Gen. Muhoozi to form a committee comprising different security agencies to plan and implement measures to stop the vandalism. END.
