House of Prayer Ministries International leader, Pastor Aloysius Bugingo has sacked the head of his security team one week after he allegedly survived an assassination attempt that left his bodyguard dead.
In a January 5th letter addressed to Simon Peter Watch Kaswabuli the director ECCOZ Security Company, Bugingo said the police had taken over his security affairs following the January 2 evening attack by unknown gunmen in Namungoona, Rubaga Division in Kampala.
Kaswabuli is also deputy Resident City Commissioner (RCC) of Mbarara District and is believed to have been a long-time acquaintance of the pastor.
Pastor Bujingo promised to settle any outstanding financial or other obligations with Kaswabuli in due course.
Last Sunday, Pastor Bugingo preached at his Makerere-based HPMI church amidst heavy police and army presence.
It was during this prayer service that the commander of the army’s operations in Kampala Metropolitan Area, Col Fred Mwesigye informed the congregation that they had taken over security.
