Tabula Lujja, the prime suspect in the murder of Ndiga clan head Lwomwa Bbosa Kakeedo, confessed and said that he does not regret hiring Enock Sserunkuuma (deceased) and Lujja Noah to kill Lwomwa on February 25, 2024.
Bbosa was gunned down near his home in Lungujja, a Kampala suburb, on February 24, 2024, by assailants riding on boda bodas. Detectives from the Crime Intelligence Department (CID) arrested Lujja earlier this week in Kimelika-Namulonge, Busikuma, after evading capture for nearly six months.
Tabula made the revelation as security operatives in plain clothes escorted him into Mwanga 2 Court in Kampala yesterday.
The prime suspect was brought to court at around 3 p.m. (EAT) in a drone car with registration number UBJ 749B amidst tight security.
After the security operatives got him out of the car to escort him to the court chambers, he smilingly confessed that he paid the two killers to help him exact revenge for the murder of his father, Israel Kalyesubula, in 1989. He accused the former clan head of being behind the murder of his father.
Tabula also accused him of selling Ndiga clan land in the Mpigi district. The prime suspect further claimed to be the rightful Ndiga clan head.
In a court presided over by Grade One Magistrate Adams Byarugaba, Tabula was formally charged with murder and remanded to Luzira prison and will return to court on October 3, 2024.
The other suspects – Harriet Nakiguli, a resident of Nkere Corner Zone in Kawempe Division; Joseph Nakabale, a carpenter from Gala, Mpigi Town Council; Ezra Mayanja, a carpenter from Kiganda Zone in Kawempe; and Milly Naluwenda, secretary to the Kisekwa cultural court of Buganda, have been appearing before the Mwanga II Magistrate’s court as police continued to search for Tabula.
Meanwhile, Lujja clarified that Naluwenda was only involved in informing him of Lwomwa’s murder and was not part of the plot. Lujja also denied any involvement in human sacrifice, explaining that the 17 skulls recovered from his shrine in Mpigi were legitimately obtained for ancestral purposes.
