“We were coming from Berlin from campaigning and heading to the stage where we usually hold our meetings after campaigns. So together with the president there are people who came in front of us and I myself told the president that they are voters coming to greet us as students normally do, what we thought as a handshake turned into a blows, kicks and punches on our guild aspirant,” Mutebi narrated.
By press time, Niwagaba who was left with a deep cut on the right arm besides heavy beatings on the head was receiving medical attention at Bugolobi Medical Centre in a very critical condition.
UYD candidate Awori Emmanuel ,Niwagaba’s opponent has condemned the act,by issuing out the statement below.
“An attack on a leader is an attack on his constituency. This attack was not only an attack on our brother Walter, it was an attack on us. It is for this reason that I call upon you to be strong and vigilant. Your life matters and counts.”
“I argue you to be security conscious. Do not move alone much less move in the silent night. Our Hostel areas are not safe enough for us to move freely.”
Niwagaba, who was expected to appear at a massive rally today, failed, because he sustained several injuries, including stab wounds.
The MUBS police are currently investigating the matter and hunting for Niwagaba’s attackers, on top of deploying heavily for the election slated for tomorrow.
