Mr. Museveni’s address comes just days after suspected terrorists attacked and killed one person in Digida pork joint explosion on Saturday night last week.

The bomb attack on a pork joint in Kampala last weekend left one person dead and three injured.

The President in reaction to the attack described this as the “action of the parasite pigs.”

He also asked the public not to fear, adding “we shall defeat this criminality like we have defeated all the other criminality committed by the pigs who don’t respect life.”
