Reliable information Watchdog has received indicates that no one shot NRM’s Deputy Secretary General, Richard Todwong.
Earlier today NTV and online media Chimpreports reported that Todwong was shot by unkonwn assailant while in Gulu Town where he had gone to see his wife who had just given birth.
However, the earlier allegations are all false.
We have managed to talk to a reliable source who has preferred anonymity and he has been able to tell us wat really transpired in the whole incident.
According to our source, Todwong was on his way to Gulu last evening, when he reached Bweyale, next to Karuma, a vehucle ahead of him knocked dead someone and sped off.
Todwong told his driver to speed up so that they can catchup with the vehicle ahead so as to stop the suspect but instead the criminal just continued speeding.
In the due course, Todwong pulled out his gun and shot some bullets in the air to scare the suspect as well to slow him but to no avail.
“Unfortunately a bullet shell from the gun returned with heavy pressure and hit his leg creating a wound,” Source told Watchdog.
“He was taken to Gulu Independent hospital to nurse the wound and he is on his way to Kampala,” source added.
