The days the suspects in John Bosco Ariong’s death stayed in Luzira Upper Prison looked shorter than those I spent with Dr. Col. Kiiza Besigye in Nakasongola Prison because from day one prison official in Nakasongola switched off the electricity and Water.

We would spend the nights on the watch therefore not sleep because we would hear people moving around our ward. We were not allowed to interact with other inmates in Nakasongola prison.

In Luzira prison, there was no space for sleeping because of the over congestion, there were no drugs in Luzra prison ” hospital’’, homosexuality because of sex starvation is rampant and poverty.

While were in Luzira, we would be locked in at 4:00PM which was too much for me.  Poison scare was all over. What surprised me was the number of PGB boys in jail charged with deserting and robbery.

You would rub shoulders with former Arua Municipality MP Akbar Godi, LRA’s Koyelo, Kamdulu, ADF’s Benz, WBS’s TV presenter of the Oldies show, Kaka who was remanded over defilement many high profile criminals. The most popular case at Luzira prison is defilement where one is sentenced for not less than 20 years.  Many people are convicted innocently because they do not have lawyers. You find some one at Luzira Prison with a sentence of up to 310 years. Most of the people at Luzira prison who are serving long sentences are politicians like former MP Godi who were opposing president Museveni’s leadership.
