Security agencies have ramped up surveillance efforts in Kampala and throughout the country in response to renewed terror threats.

This morning, traders were ordered to evacuate the Mabiito business hub in Nateete, Rubaga Division, Kampala, following the discovery of a suspected explosive device near the Nateete central B zone LCI offices.

The area has been cordoned off, and security personnel are awaiting the deployment of the bomb squad.

On Sunday, an Anti-terrorism unit composed of experts from the police, army, and sister security agencies apprehended a 28-year-old man who was allegedly in the final stages of setting off an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) at Rubaga Mirale Center in Kampala.

According to Patrick Onyango, the Kampala Metropolitan Police spokesman, the suspect was found with an IED concealed in a bag, along with a food flask containing powder, nails, a motorcycle battery (used as a charger), a mobile phone handset (intended as a switch), a detonator, and a booster charger.

Onyango said that security forces are working diligently to prevent any potential threats from materializing and to ensure the safety and security of the public.
