Police in Luweero have arrested four people for attempting to exhume the body of a relative at the Luweero Anglican Cathedral. The group also performed traditional rituals in the cathedral's compound. They reportedly stormed the compound on Friday afternoon, claiming to have been haunted by the spirit of their dead relative who was demanding to be reburied at their ancestral burial ground.
President Yoweri Museveni instructed his driver to stop in the centre of the town and emerged from his Mercedes vehicle to address the mini rally. "I have seen the potholes along this highway and I have noted it", Mr Museveni said amidst cheers from the residents.
The president has also commended Luweero residents for producing huge quantities of pineapples. He promised to construct a pineapple-processing factory in the area.
There is general unease among teachers in Luweero district after the education officer, Asuman Kamoga, announced plans to lay off primary school teachers. He said the district was given a staff ceiling of 2,270 teachers, to match the approved Government teacher to pupil ratio of 1:53, but added that there were over 250 excess teachers on the payroll. Kamoga revealed that the teachers to be affected are drunkards, defilers and perpetual absentees.
