The Speaker of Parliament, Rebecca Kadaga, has said the Parliamentary Commission is taking measures to ensure security of legislators following recent murders in the country.
There has been a high spate of murders of high-profile government officials with the latest victim being the former Buyende District Police Commander, Muhammad Kirumira. Kirumira together with a female occupant in his car were fatally shot near his residence on the evening of 8 September, 2018 in Bulenga, Wakiso district.
