The leadership in Kalungu District has called on the Uganda People’s Defence Forces to investigate the circumstances under which two fishermen, Willy Zziwa, 21, and Ziyad Nsereko, 23, died earlier this month.
There are conflicting reports around their deaths. Whereas there are reports that the duo drowned as they tried to get away from soldiers attached to the Fisheries Protection Unit (PPU) on Lake Victoria who were pursuing them, some quarters claim that they were killed and their bodies dumped in the waters.
This is not the first time that political leaders have called for investigations into the conduct of the soldiers deployed on lakes Victoria and Kyoga.

As schools reopen for sub-candidate classes today, many teachers will not return to classrooms due to low salaries and poor working conditions worsened by the one-year closure due to the COVID-19 lockdown.
This comes as semi-candidates are set to return to school today.
Many of the non-returning teachers mainly in private schools, faced with no payment and other challenges of the lockdown, ventured into alternative income-generating projects.
However, others in government-aided schools, despite having been receiving their monthly salaries, have also abandoned teaching after discovering better-paying enterprises.
In Kabale District, for instance, Mr Moses Muhangi Tweyongyere, a secondary school geography teacher, who was earning Shs300,000 per month in a private school, is not returning to teaching.
