The Police on Sunday confirmed they had arrested the newly-elected National Unity Platform (NUP) Member of Parliament for Busiro North, Paul Nsubuga, who was caught on CCTV camera allegedly stealing a phone from one of the shops in Kampala.

Kampala Metropolitan Police Deputy Spokesperson Luke Owoyesigyire confirmed the arrest, adding that the suspect had been detained at the Central Police Station. The crime was allegedly committed in 2019.

'Police at CPS Kampala are holding Nsubuga for allegedly being involved in the theft of a mobile phone, itel 5625, silver in colour worth sh80,000, and was containing Airtel Money worth sh4.5m,” the Police spokesman said.

“The matter was reported by Gloria Namengo, a businesswoman and resident of Kawempe Division in Kampala district,' Owoyesigyire said, adding that the case was registered under file number: CPS KAMPALA CRB 392/2021.

Police noted that, according to Namengo, on June 3, 2019 at around 1pm at Inseria Properties Nakasero opposite Shoprite Entebbe Road, Nsubuga allegedly stole the transaction phone and the incident was captured by the CCTV cameras installed in the shop.

Owoyesigyire said the suspect was arrested and is currently detained at Central Police Station on allegations of theft.

“Investigations are still ongoing as we have also ascertained that a lot of victims have come out to complain of the same person about the theft of their money,” he said.  

The Police also explained why they had taken long before arresting Nsubuga.

'We received the CCTV footage when the crime was committed but it was difficult to arrest him because no one knew Nsubuga.

'He was only identified after he started campaigning. It is actually the Police that took long to arrest him,' Owoyesigyire explained.

UGANDA ELECTORAL COMMISSION TO ELIMINATE NATIONAL IDENTIFICATION CARDS (IDs) FOR 2021 GENERAL ELECTIONS.

By Editor
The elimination of using National IDs (Ndagamuntu) for the 2021 elections should not have come as a surprise. One would be very NAIVE to think that Bobi Wine has not prepared for this in his Business Plan under the RISK section. It is public knowledge that our EC is not independent.  It is also public knowledge that Military Dictator Yoweri Museveni will never lose an election. What stunned us this morning is when we noticed that on social media, people were mocking Bobi with his "get your Ndagamuntu".  We are on record for saying to all Our readers that the National ID is like Apartheid in South Africa. Students of History would know how those IDs were being used to arrest people, deny them jobs, deny them basic services. Consequently, Bobi was not wrong and will never be wrong on the Ndagamuntu. Except the ones attacking him and mocking him forget that in Uganda, now, no National ID (Ndagamuntu), no service.  If you have not been denied registering your child i...

Last week of March, a friend told me to pray for Uganda.  I told him that he was an Idiot and we have prayed for too long and we are still hungry and sick and Jesus is not coming soon to liberate us. He then ignored the STUPID and sent me a picture we all now know.  It got me totally messed up.  This guy was telling me to pray then sends a picture of men bowing down in blood.  He might have meant guns but I blocked him because his utterances of praying for Uganda were misplaced. I unblocked him 3 weeks later and asked him about praying and assassinations.  His reply "eithrr prayers or guns or both". I hate violence with a passion.  So he is now blocked in like FOREVER. Do you feel safe?  Do not feel safe. Uganda regim...

By Editor
Parliament also urged Gov’t to provide additional Shs4Bn to UTB to engage international and national media houses in production of positive media stories for improved destination image, following reports of drop in number of tourists from US, Europe and China visiting Uganda. "The National Development Plan targeted to cumulatively attract 281,760 International Tourist arrivals from US, Europe & China but only 67,252 arrivals were registered by the end of the first half of FY 2023/24.

The UTB requires Shs4Bn to engage international & national media houses in production of positive tourism stories to improve destination perception in light of recent controversies that shade the destination in a bad light. However, this has remained unfunded,” said La...
