In Kabale—

Rev. Christopher Tugumehabwe has threatened to sue Emeritus Archbishop Stanley Ntagali for sleeping with his wife.

Rev. Christopher is a husband to Judith Tukamuhabwa the woman whom Ntagali recently confessed to have been having an affair with.

In an intention to sue letter seen by www.mknewslink.com, Tugumehabwe says that it has come to his knowledge that Archbishop Ntagali has been committing adultery with his wife and she currently bears Ntagali’s child.

Through his lawyers of Bikangiso and Co. advocates, Christopher adds that it has also come to his knowledge that the archbishop encouraged, advised and ensured that his wife petitioned Kabale magistrate’s court for a divorce.

“We have also recently learnt from various media platforms of the fact that, you admitted to having committed an offence of adultery with our client’s wife,” Tugumehabwe’s lawyers say in their intention to sue.

“Your unbecoming, sinful and unlawful conducts have occasioned our client general damages to wit- loss of dignity, marriage break down, stress, trauma, embarrassment, loss of privacy… and minimal chances to rise in the clergy ranks,” they asserted.

The lawyers thus demand Ntagali to pay 50,000,000 million shillings as damages caused to their client and 30,000,000 as costs so far incurred in the divorce case.

They also want the Archbishop to apologize to the Reverend and failure to do both; he should prepare to battle them in court.

In Mbarara—

Mbarara District Police Commander SP John Rutagira has expressed dissatisfaction with the way telecommunication companies handle the issue of SIM card registration.

He noted that SIM cards registered in other people’s names rather than their actual users have facilitated the continued cybercrime.

Rutagira made the remarks on Friday last week as the minister for ICT Judith Nabakooba met the members of the media from western Uganda in Mbarara city to discuss the role of media plus the relationship between the government and the media.

He pleaded with the minister that her ministry should provide tracking devices to every regional police station to help in tracking criminals that use SIM cards to commit crime.

Journalists on the other hand asked the ministry should give a guide them on who to host since the police and its sister security agencies always invade media houses that host opposition politicians.

The minister for ICT Judith Nabakooba promised that as the ministry they will engage telephone companies to switch off all SIM cards that are registered in other people’s names in order to eliminate cyber crime.
