Police Chief Martin Okoth Ochola has sent Kira Road Police Station DPC Michael Kasigire to Entebbe Police.
The IGP in his message says the transfer takes an immediate effect.
Kasigire now replaces SP Baker Kawonawo who was arrested for defying the President’s directive to implement a lockdown in a bid to prevent spread of COVID-19.
The defiant cop allowed bars and nightclubs to operate well knowing that Entebbe has facilities which accommodate most of the patients and other individuals under quarantine.
Police publicist CP Fred Enanga confirmed the news.
“Its true DPC Kira Road Michael Kasigaire has been transferred to head Entebbe Police Division with Immediate effect,” said Enanga.
Kasigire also confirmed to us his abrupt transfer.
“What I can say is I have been transferred to Entebbe Police and will soon report on duty.”
