The Deputy Speaker of Parliament Mr. Thomas Tayebwa has condemned individuals involved in what he has called a cowardly attack that left two foreign tourists and their Ugandan guide dead last evening at Katwe, Queen Elizabeth National Park, in Kasese District.<\/p>\n
In a message posted on his X- former Twitter page, Tayebwa says the barbaric attack must be condemned in the strongest possible terms.<\/p>\n
He is optimistic that Uganda will remain secure and a stable country despite the negative effect the tourism sector is currently facing due to the incident.<\/p>\n
“I have strong faith in our security that the perpetrators will be brought to book and security reinforced. I know such an incident will negatively affect the tourism sector, but Uganda still remains a very secure and stable country where tourists can marvel in the rare beauty of God’s creation,” Tayebwa’s post reads in part.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
