Afande Kaweesi
Kaweesi was killed by journalists!
Journalists described Kaweesi as a source who became a
friend, who tirelessly fought to defend them from brutality by the Police Force
Yet the same journalists failed to task the Police and all
investigating organs to do more to apprehend the criminals taking the lives of
Ugandans in a seemingly visible pattern
Journalists failed to tell the story of why Muslim clerics
were being targeted
Journalists failed to tell the story of why the criminals
favored the use of motorcycles
Journalists failed to question the police on the futile
investigations, unreleased reports and rampant insecurity
My fellow journalists, we killed Kaweesi!

Kaweesi was killed by the Police and other security organs
The Police and its apparatus arrived at crime scene after
crime scene, gathered evidence, produced composite images of suspects,
conducted investigations and DID NOT APPREHEND THE CRIMINALS
The president said it;
'You people always have clues leading to the criminals and
yet because you have been infiltrated by criminal gangs, we have come to this...'
- Museveni
The IGP, CIID, CDF, CGP and the DISOs, GISOs, PISOs the
president was talking about; you killed Kaweesi!

Kaweesi was killed by the government he served
The president said public servants killed Kaweesi because
they frustrated development projects like the installation of CCTV cameras in
all major urban centers and highways through their incessant demands for higher
salaries
Kaweesi was killed by the government that purchased posh air
conditioned vehicles for its key personnel in sensitive security positions
rather than securing armored vehicles. (The luxury of armored vehicles was
spared for the Fountain of Honor and rioters!)
Kaweesi was killed by a government that accepted half-baked
solutions and half-truths in the name of crime preventers as solutions for its
glaring security gaps
Government of Uganda, you killed Kaweesi!

Kaweesi killed himself
Kaweesi killed himself when he failed to establish a force
competent enough to combat the violent crime that took his life; a force that
would not pledge investigations and arrests of criminals every time a Ugandan
was brutally murdered by gunmen on a motorcycle. (Kaweesi acted in various
training and Human Resource capacities within the force and could take credit
for the personnel's competencies and blame for its inefficiencies)
Kaweesi killed himself when he refused to believe that his
life was in any more danger than any other policeman doing his job. (Refer to
Umar Kashaka's interview with AIGP Andrew Felix Kaweesi published in Sunday
Vision)
Sadly, Kaweesi killed Kaweesi!

Kaweesi was killed by You and I
You and I killed Kaweesi when we looked the other way as
Muslim clerics were gunned down in cold blood
You and I killed Kaweesi when we refused to hold the
security forces accountable for the alarming insecurity and crippling boldness
of criminals terrorising us
You and I killed Kaweesi killed when we buried our heads in
the sand and refused to believe that insecurity was 'Coming To A Street Near
You'
You and I killed Kaweesi when we made fun of the composite
images and all efforts by our Police officers to apprehend crime. We made fun
because we won't trust our Police and we would rather crack jokes than undergo
the baptism of fire that would accompany making the 'Investigations Are Ongoing
Department' accountable!
You and I killed Kaweesi!
