President Yoweri Museveni has said that the government will compensate families of innocent victims who were killed during the recent city protests.

Museveni made the remarks last evening during his televised national address on issues of security and covid-19 situation.

President Museveni says that he has already received a detailed report on each of the 54 people that lost their lives in the protests.

The protests were sparked off by the arrest of National Unity Platform-NUP Presidential Candidate Robert Kyagulanyi in Luuka District.

However, Museveni said that no money will be given to the families of the 34 people who participated in the protests.

Museveni also castigated leaders for blaming security officers for their actions during the riots.
