Highly Connected? Assailant Who Killed Buganda Chief Allegedly Receiving VIP Treatment At Mulago , Guarded Like A Minister – Katikiiro Speaks Out

An enraged mob took justice into their own hands by lynching two armed assailants responsible for the tragic death of Buganda Kingdom’s esteemed Sheep (Ndiga) clan head, Daniel Bbosa.

The incident unfolded on Sunday evening in Lungujja, Rubaga Division, sending shockwaves through the community. Whereas one was killed on spot , another one survived and is currently receiving treatment.

This website has learnt that Brig. Gen. Christopher Ddamulira Sserunjogi, the Police Director for Crime Intelligence, and Maj. Dr. Tom Magambo, the Director for Criminal Investigation Department (CID), are overseeing proceedings at Mulago hospital.

Derrick Noah Luggya, one of the suspected assassins, is receiving treatment after being assaulted nearly to death by an enraged mob. Commandos and detectives are stationed at Mulago hospital to ensure Luggya’s safety, rotating shifts every six hours. It’s reported that the patient is responding well to treatment.

Luggya stands accused of fatally shooting Bbosa, with his accomplice Emmanuel Sserukuma, who was riding the motorcycle, being killed by the mob at Bulange in Lubaga Division. Police spokesperson Fred Enanga mentioned that detectives assigned to Bbosa’s case will soon take Luggya’s statement.

Buganda Premier Mayiga asked security to make sure that Luggya gives them all the necessary information which will help bring all suspects to book.

Meanwhile, On Tuesday morning, the Katikkiro of Buganda, Charles Peter Mayiga, convened with a segment of the executive members of the Buganda Kingdom clan heads council (Olukiiko lw’abataka), led by Ssalongo Augustine Kizito Mutumba, the speaker of the Council, at Bulange Mengo, the headquarters of the Buganda Kingdom.

The purpose of the meeting was to address specific issues concerning the council, particularly the funeral arrangements for Omutaka Daniel Bbosa Lwomwa, the clan head of the Endiga (Sheep) clan, who was assassinated by gunmen near his residence in Lungujja, Lubaga Division, a suburb of Kampala.

The burial of Bbosa is scheduled for next week, pending the ongoing process of selecting his successor. Initially, the clan royal chair (Ssemusota) will be appointed to oversee the succession process. Once the successor is chosen, Mayiga will present him to Kabaka Mutebi for confirmation or rejection, after which the burial will take place.

At the time of his passing, the Buganda Kingdom cultural Court (kkooti ya kisekwa) had declared Bbosa’s occupancy of the Endiga clan head position illegal. However, Bbosa had appealed the judgment to Kabaka Mutebi, whose decision was pending.
