Army vows to arrest opposition leader Dr. Kizza Besigye

The UPDF have vowed to arrest Uganda ’s opposition strongman, Col. Kiiza Besigye if he dare declare a rebellion on the government of Uganda .

This follows intelligence reports that the FDC leader is plotting to declare an armed rebellion on the Kampala government.

Besigye who was the first runner up during the February presidential polls has however denied this intelligence information, saying that most of the informers no longer have things to report about.

A source sitting on the army council has told this reporter that UPDF treats all intelligence information in the same way and it can not just trash reports that the FDC leader is soon declaring a guerrilla war.

We take them seriously until proved otherwise. In a radio call message to all army detaches yesterday by Gen. Aronda Nyakairima, all commanding officers were told to be on alert anytime and get ready to quickly respond in case there is insecurity reported.
