“……..I last talked to him on Wednesday evening after the terrible scuffle which occured in Parliament,” a legislator who has been close to Isaac Bakka told this Website on Tuesday afternoon.
This Member of Parliament who requested to remain unnamed said he would most times interact with Bakka and his opinions towards the regime were usually scathing.
Bakka, estimated to be in his late 50s, is a former military chaplain at the rank of captain in Iddi Amin’s regime.
He witnessed a raid on Entebbe Airport in 1976 by Israeli government to rescue over 100 hostages.
Bakka, who at a time of his disappearance was married with a wife and children stayed in Seeta, Mukono District and worked with Bunyoro Broadcasting Corporation (BBC).
After his Commander In Chief (CiC) President Amin was deposed in 1979, Bakka had no option but work as a journalist until the day he went missing.
According to his colleagues in the profession, Bakka was last seen last Saturday, ” and since then his family has not heard from him again.”
After futile efforts of finding his whereabouts his wife decided lodge a complaint at Seeta police of a missing person.
“Our colleague has been missing for days. We know nothing about the circumstances and all. But we now know a case of his disapperance has been registered with the police,” read of the messages circulating on social media.
It remains unclear whether he was kidnapped, killed or still alive.
Fellow scribes have launched a man hunt whether read of alive.
