Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni yesterday narrowly escaped death
when one of his bodyguards "accidentally" lost possession of his
automatic weapon which fell to the ground and fired as the Ugandan
leader was about to get into his car.
Gen Museveni, had just addressed the East African
Legislative Assembly (EALA) at parliament in Kampala last evening and
after posing for photographs outside parliament, he was heading for
his waiting car at the parliamentary park yard when a shot was heard
clearly emanating from within his security guards.
The security guard was dressed in a black suit and was travelling in
the third pick-up escort truck that is part of a long presidential
motorcade that follow the president wherever he goes while inside the
country.
At first it was not quite clear what had happened. There was
pandemonium as the legislators who had come to see off the president
took to their heels as the president was being quickly bundled into
his bullet-proof car that then sped off at high speed.
