However, he blamed the regime of President Museveni for destroying careers and reputations of great men and women.
“Gen Lokech was a gallant, courageous and fine soldier. A lot has been said about his bravery on the battlefield. His peers talk of how he commanded from the front, sometimes putting his life on the line. Unfortunately, the Museveni regime has not only destroyed our nation, it has also distinguished itself in destroying careers and reputations of great men and women,” said Kyagulanyi in a statement.
The president of National Unity Platform said the General had a distinguished military career which many younger officers and men were eager to emulate.
For him though, it’s a pity that the fallen General accepted to work with this current government.
“Gen. Museveni, afraid to his skin of an impending election defeat, and well aware of the kind of rigging he was plotting to do, decided to deploy Gen. Paul Lokech to stop any attempt of the people of Uganda to rise up and reclaim their democratic rights.”
On the death of military generals;
Meanwhile, Bobi Wine questioned the manner in which most of these generals are just passing on.
Much as the recent postmortem report says he died of a blood clot, he personally doesn’t believe it. According to him, there are so many questions to answer.
“To date, there are many deaths which have left more questions than answers and this is one of them. To all soldiers and police officers who are still alive, my appeal to you is that you learn a lesson about this tragedy.”
