Don’t Fear, We’ll Crush Those Pigs Behind Komamboga Bomb Blast – Museveni Assures Ugandans following Terrorist Attack

President Yoweri Kaguta Tibuhaburwa Museveni has assured Ugandans the country’s security agencies will apprehend the ‘pigs’ behind Komamboga bomb blast.

Bomb blasts at Digida Eating Point happened October 23 night at about 9pm.

At least one person was confirmed dead.

Local media quoted eye witnesses as saying the suspected terrorists had bought beer at the eating point.

This October 24 morning, President Museveni, also commander-in-chief of the armed forces spoke about the attack after receiving a briefing from security agencies. Read what he said here.

In a statement, Museveni vowed to defeat the criminals behind the attack.

As he has said in his reactions on previous criminal activities, Museveni labelled the attackers ‘pigs.’

The 77-year-old former bush warlord assures Ugandans there was nothing to fear.

“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,” said Museveni.
