The ruling National Resistance Movement Secretary General, Justine Kasule Lumumba has paid tribute to the murdered party cadre and legislator, Ibrahim Abiriga.
The news of the Friday evening brutal murder of the Arua Municipality Member of Parliament shook the country.
Lumumba in a message released by the party spokesman, Rogers Mulindwa described Abiriga as a loyal cadre whose murder she says is a big robbery to NRM.
“Information reaching us this Friday evening indicates that the NRM legislator was gunned down in Kawanda just a few metres to his home.
Hon. Abiriga has been a staunch member of NRM whose loyalty to the Party was well known to all concerned. He hasn’t only been a loyal member but supportive to all initiatives of the NRM government,” reads the message.
“We are robbed of a loyal cadre of NRM and an open minded legislator. I pray that the security agencies trace these assassins and bring them to face the law. We shall greatly miss him”, said Lumumba
