Following his release on bail, Arua Municipality MP-elect, Kassiano Wadri has this morning narrated what happened on the eve of the Arua by-elections.

Wadri says Museveni just got “frustrated” about the NRM gathering which was dominated by young children and as a result, he ordered the Special Forces Command to provoke the opposition rally.

“The NRM rally only had children and I think that’s what annoyed him, how on earth would anybody harm the president, he’s the fountain of honour,” Wadri asserted. 

Wadri revealed that they were arrested by two sets of security apparatus, SFC officials arrested the first bunch then the police came in later to also arrest others.

“The SFC was so unprofessional, that’s why most of my colleagues got hurt. They are the worst human beings. The butch of police officers who came with sticks was a little professional,” Wadri said. 

“Hon. Bobi Wine was arrested by SFC, he was tortured left, right back to center. No one who was arrested by SFC came out the same, they all had bruises. We actually couldn’t believe Hon. Zaake was still alive, we had to plead with police to take him to Gulu hospital because he was in the worst state,” he further revealed. 

Barred from Arua for three months, Wadri is currently camping at his Bweyogerere home as he awaits on Parliament to officially swear him in.
