Our surveillance staff who followed Tumukunde to stanbic bank main branch yesterday were left in shock and awe when the brigadier approached the bank counter and unleashed several 100 US dollars to have them exchanged to Ugandan cash.

Tumukunde went to the bank in a pajero. All the business in the bank came to a standstill as both the workers and other clients had focused their attention on the brigadier. The brigadier was all smiles as he waved to everyone as he was being served.

Immediately after getting the local currency, Brig. Tumukunde walked out of the bank and drove away.
