It’s not only Kenya with two sitting presidents! Our ‘neighbouring’ Kawempe Republic president Hamidu Luutu and some members of its cabinet have been arrested and remanded to Luzira prison in what they perceive as “neighbouring country, Uganda.”
‘His Excellency President’ Hamidu Luutu Walakira (wide eyed in brown t-shirt) of the Kawempe Republic is being charged with assault and conducting an unlawful assembly in LDC court on Makerere hill. Also charged with him is Kawempe Republic chief of intelligence (blue shirt). The president’s other co-accused is the Inspector General of Police (purple shirt). The top leadership of the ‘neighbouring state’ have been sent on remand despite the protests of their lawyer Mr Gawaya Tegulle.
The group allegedly declared Kawempe division an independent state from Uganda protesting high level of unemployment.
