“Iam going to sue fresh charges on Ms. Anita Among for subjecting me to malicious arrest, prosecution, defamation and loss or damages which are amounting to UGX 10 Bn shillings”, he told reporters moments after the Court acquitted him.

Mr. Buwembo said the genesis of his troubles began on 22nd September, 2023, when he was arrested for calling the Rt. Hon. Speaker Anita Among “Karamoja Iron Sheets thief”. He said he has enough evidence implicating Rt. Hon. Speaker Anita Among in the theft of the said Karamoja Iron sheets.
