The
inspector General of police Gen. Kale Kayihura last evening paid a
short visit to the Buhikira Royal palace where he had talks with
Omusinga Charles Wesley Mumbere Iremangoma.
His visit comes just two
days to the much anticipated peace day celebration that will be held in
Bundibugyo district on Sunday June 30. But the celebrations are
contested by the Bamba who claim that the cultural space in Bundibugyo
belongs to the yet to be recognized Obundingiya Bwa Bwamba cultural
institution.
On arrival in the palace, Gen. Kayihura handed gifts to
the Omusinga before going in for one on one talks that last for over
two hours from 7pm to about 9pm.
After the meeting, Gen. Kayihura
left the palace without speaking to the press about the reason he came
for the talks with the Omusinga.
The minister of information and
Kingdom spokesperson Patrick Nyamunungu described the IGP’s visit as a
courtesy call on the Omusinga.
Nyamunungu however revealed that the
Acting Prime Minister Ivan Syauswa has summoned a cabinet meeting this
morning but quickly added, it is aimed at discussing the journey to
Bundibugyo
