Gen. Tumwine Should Have Apologised To Ugandans – Charity Ahimbisibwe

Posted by: Suubi Anne in Uganda news August 26, 2022

Charity Ahimbisibwe, the executive director of Citizen Coalition for Election Democracy Uganda, CCEDU has said Gen Elly Tumwine should have apologized to Ugandans.

Gen. Elly Tumwine said some reckless statements after the shootings in Kampala during the 2021 General Elections. Tumwine said it is the right of the police to shoot and kill whoever is being violent.

However, Ugandans were not in any way happy with this and to this day they express it in the way they speak.

In fact due to this, most social media users have been so callous in their reaction to the death of the general. However, Ahimbisibwe says if he had apologized over these statements, probably things would be different.

“Gen. Tumwine’s last statement on the issue of transition is something the @NRMOnline should pay attention to. He went to the bush and knew what they went through. I wish Gen. Tumwine had apologized to Ugandans for the unfortunate words he said during the heat of the 2021 General Elections. It would have exonerated him.”

However, some people insist that the general had nothing to be apologetic about because he only stated facts.

“He said nothing but the truth. There’s a level of violence where the police or the army is allowed to do that. And no political apology is needed that since he wasn’t justifying what most of you think,” a one Alberto Carlos said.
