Grief and shock hit the members of Activists for Change (A4C) after president Museveni’s advisor on security, Maj. Gen. Isaac Lumago died. Lumago died after reportedly advising President Museveni to curb police violence on peaceful demonstrators who are demanding the government to be accountable to people and to fight the high cost of living.
A source in the deceased’s family told us that the deceased loved President Museveni so much and he would sometimes sob whenever something wrong would happen to the president’s life.
The family member alleges that recently Lumago advised Museveni to look into the demands of A4C and opposition in general but the president declined to listen to him.
So the source alleges that from that time Lumago developed High Blood pressure. He died at Arua regional referral hospital today where he was admitted in the intensive care.
The doctors at Arua regional hospital also confirmed that Lumago succumbed to high blood pressure. According to statehouse sources, Lumago will be buried amidst full military honours and gun salute.
