For instance, the police have today arrested a 19 year old student from Ntale school while impersonating Gen. Salim Saleh. Mike Mugarura was arrested by the police in Mbarara as he was conning a man in Mbarara of 250,000 shillings. Mugarura had introduced himself to this man of Rwandan origin that he was Gen. Salim Saleh and he would help his son to get a job at Bank of Uganda if he gave him 250,000 shillings.

Mugarura’s luck ran out as he had gone to collect the money and the police arrested him instead. He was arrested after the Rwandan man told one of his friends that Gen. Saleh was going to pick 250,000 from him.

His friend wondered how Saleh would collect 250,000 shillings just to get someone a job. The friend to this Rwandan man told him that Mugarura was a conman so they tipped police which arrested him on the arrival.

The Kampala Metropolitan spokesperson Ibin Ssenkumbi says Kasajja formed an association called Uganda Volunteers Movement Association based in Ndeeba to mobilise local people.

He says Kasajja and his group have been getting money from people between 100, 000 and one million shillings for identity cards, registration and T. Shirts.

Ssenkumbi adds that yesterday, over 6000 people were organised from different districts at Kololo airstrip being promised that the association was to be launched and President Museveni was to preside over the launch.

He says the people ended up getting stuck which sent Kasajja and his group into hiding.

Ssenkumbi says the Police have started carrying the people back to their villages and the suspects are to be charged for obtaining money by false pretence and impersonation.

He is now undertaking masters of laws at Makerere University. Our reporters have established that Mbidde is undertaking the following course units: Corporate finance law, Legal control of natural resources, the law of treaties, environmental law and policy, international and regional human rights.

Mbidde according to our sources was admitted on the course during the academic year 2011/12. He brags that after his masters degree he will study PhD.

We have over heard him telling his pals that the reasons why he is doing LLM is to increase on the trust of his clients of Mbidde and Company advocates who themselves are multinational in nature.

Being a senior partner, the instruction available to his law firm require further incite to the rhyme of corporate financing and natural resource governance in Uganda.

Then finally Mbidde is currently deeply engaged in cross boader litigation having cases pending in the EAC court of justice and one about to be taken to the African court on humans and people’s rights.

Sources say that the study of masters in laws degree will create more comfort with him in terms of handling the above. We hope Mbidde is not eyeing the presidency!
