Frank Gashumba Arrested, to be tried by the military court

Sisimuka Uganda boss, Frank Gashumba, also dad to NTV presenter, Sheila Gashumba was yesterday arrested on allegations of procuring military trucks worth millions of dollars.

Frank Gashumba's brother, Innocent Kasumba, in the company of a one Nasser Mukungu had gone to Golden Tulip Hotel in Nakasero to meet the Investor who was to supply the military trucks, little did they know that the investor had tipped authorities over the matter.

Detectives raided the hotel and arrested Kasumba as Mukungu fled. Gashumba came following up on the matter with his lawyer and that is how he was arrested. His office and home were searched and a number of items including multiple passports of Gashumba in different names were discovered. Minister of Agriculture and Defence stamps were also found in his possession.

It should be recalled that not long back, Gashumba's pic donning a Rwanda military uniform was doing rounds on social media and according to the Ministry of Defence deputy spokesperson, Lt.Col Deo Akiiki, that is the very photo Gashumba was using to dupe investors that he was  working for Uganda People's Defence Force (UPDF).

When approached over the matter, in a low tone Frank said he will make a comment at the appropriate time.

Sheila Gashumba who is currently in South Africa for an event she will be hosting in a few days wrote this;
