By Kato Jamil 

One person has been shot dead and another seriously injured in a suspected aggravated robbery in Ntinda, a Kampala suburb.

Kampala Metropolitan deputy spokesperson, ASP Luke Owoyesigyire said police had responded to the scene.

“Kira Road Police have responded to a scene of aggravated robbery in Ntinda. Tragically, one person has been confirmed dead, and another sustained injuries. Further details will be provided as soon as Possible,” ASP Oweyesigyire said in a Thursday evening, November 21 statement issued minutes after Kampala Deputy Lord Mayor, Ms Doreen Nyanjura posted on her X handle saying her brother, one Albert Cook Tugume who operates a mobile money shop in the area had been shot dead.

Ms Nyanjura said Tugume,33, was shot three times by unknown assailants who jumped on a waiting boda boda motorcycle and fled the scene after the 8pm attack.

Nyanjura’s Message Below; 

“My young brother, Tugume Albert Cook Apuuli aged 33 years was shot dead by gunmen a few minutes past 8;00PM on Thursday 21st Nov 2024 at his mobile money and agent banking shop on Ntinda Kiwatule Road (Muvule, central road). Cook attempted to take off from the gun men but he could only run so far, the cowards shoot him three times, took off with his bag containing the money, mobile agent lines and bank agent machines. The gunmen jumped on a waiting boda boda and took off!

A boda guy called Barnabas was shot while attempting to save my brother’s life, Barnabas we are told is at Mulago hospital receiving treatment, we are praying for his speedy recovery and we are forever indebted to him for his heroic act.

A church Service for Albert Cook will be held today, Friday at 2;00PM at St Luke Church Ntinda.

Until we meet again bro😭😭😭 RIP.”
