Speaking on a telephone callon Tuesday evening 5-November-2024, the outgoing DPC, SP Joshua Kananura who confirmed he is no longer the DPC for Maracha District, described his situation as a normal transfer.

“I have been transferred 14 times now! Infact, I have even stayed in Maracha District for almost 2 years. So, to me, it is a normal transfer”, SP Joshua lamented while stating Police Headquarter Kampala as his new duty station.


However according to a classified information shared with this online news publication team,  some highly placed intelligence sources are alleging that, the dilemma of SP Joshua Kananura stems from how he mishandled the entire saga involving embattled LC3 Chairperson Hon Saul Abiriga who was severally reported for taking away 900,000 Shs belonging to 75-Years-Old Mzee Andrua Simon a disabled PDM beneficiary in Awiziru Sub-county.
