NO SECRET DIES FOREVER!! Details Emerge On Why Nixon Agasirwe Ordered The Killing Of Joan Kagezi, How She Was Almost Revealing Names Of Those Involved In The 2010 Kampala Bombing

In Uganda, a saying is gaining renewed resonance: no secret stays buried forever. This comes as new revelations emerge surrounding the 2015 assassination of Senior Principal State Attorney Joan Kagezi—and its potential ties to the devastating 2010 Kampala bombings.

Kagezi had been the lead prosecutor in the high-profile terrorism case involving twin bombings that killed nearly 100 people during the World Cup final in Kampala. At the time of her murder, she was reportedly closing in on uncovering a hidden web of complicity involving top police officials who may have enabled the attack.

“She was close to exposing the chain of command that allowed the bombings to happen,” said a security source who spoke on condition of anonymity. “She had already obtained strong testimonies implicating high-ranking police officers, including Nixon Agasirwe.”

Nixon Karuhanga Agasirwe, a former senior police officer, has repeatedly been named in leaked intelligence documents and whistleblower accounts. Rather than taking action on early warnings about the planned attack, Agasirwe is alleged to have facilitated the perpetrators and later tried to frame the arrests as a personal achievement.

As Kagezi dug deeper into the case, her findings appear to have unsettled powerful individuals. Just days before she was gunned down, she reportedly received threats urging her to abandon the investigation. Her assassination—carried out in front of her children as she drove home from work—remains officially unsolved, with no suspects convicted to date.

Nearly a decade later, the core questions remain unanswered: Who ordered her killing? Why has justice not been served? And who gained the most from silencing her?

For many Ugandans, the answers lie within a powerful network that exploited its authority to obstruct justice. Time may pass, but secrets don’t stay buried forever. Eventually, the truth emerges—and demands to be heard.
