MUSEVENI ASSURES ON SECURITY


PRESIDENT Yoweri Museveni has assured all Ugandans that there will be no violence before or after the elections, adding that the state is ready to protect everybody and their property as they go out to vote.

While appearing on a talk-show on Bukedde TV and radio yesterday, the President stressed that the Police and the army were alert and competent to deal with whoever tries to cause violence.

“Some people have been urging you (the public) to buy and store enough food in preparations for violence ahead of the elections. But I want to assure you that there will be no violence because the ‘drug’ we shall administer to those who will try to cause chaos shall be enough to calm them down,” the President asserted.

During the talk-show called Akabbinkano (the tough race) and hosted by Terah Kaaya, Museveni added: “Elections will end peacefully; no person can break the law and go scot-free. We shall arrest and prosecute whoever perpetuates violence.”
