Lieutenant Amon Ariho, the UPDF Engineering Brigade officer who killed himself, left behind a message to Chief of Defence Forces (CDF) Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba before he shot himself dead.
Lt Ariho reportedly drove to Nakirebe football grounds in Mpigi district, chased the sportspeople who were in the field and shot himself.
Before his death, he had left a note in a Whatsapp group explaining the decision to take his life. Lt Amon Ariho addressed his note to CDF Muhoozi.
He also named Maj George Ogwang as the man whose way of running things in UPDF Engineering Brigade’s Central Region Unit as being responsible for his death, and of being selfish.
He began by thank CDF Muhoozi for his “good leadership” and prayed that “may God continue blessing” him. Lt Ariho asked Muhoozi to go on ground, visit the Engineering Brigade “and revise the some things.”
“Eng. Ogwang is the cause of my death. Him after being deployed in Engineering brigade he chased every engineer who was working with in Central region, not even working with that Engineer for even a day. Track the record of works done by us before Maj ogwang. Like I for one visit Mpigi district, and Butambala,” wrote Ariho of Maj Ogwang’s record.
“Specifically in Butambala look at Gombe Hospital. Dear CDF Maj Ogwanga found block ready made in Gombe worth Shs 100m and claiming that we’re thieves because we made blocks for selling. No he is just selfish he did not know that the former leader was strategic and would plan for the future. Maj Ogwang he did not buy any block in Gomba district because he found a soft landing. Ogwang did not even manage to pay the debts he found and they are the ones consuming us.”
Lieutenant Amon Ariho further warned Gen Muhoozi to be careful with propagandists who would compel him to ignore the soldiers on ground.
“Dear CDF harmful propaganda and selfish interests will make you hate and abandon good people and pull up wrong elements. Sir, reach on ground and make proper changes,” he wrote.
He then told the CDF where he should bury his body: Rukiga District Kamwezi Kibanda Katungu, and made his final request to Muhoozi.
“CDF sir, I request you sir to take good care of my children that I have left behind because as per now the father is no more.”
