Hon. Asuman Basalirwa responds on Hon. Zaake’s arrest “I have learnt of the unfortunate and yet illegal incident of the arrest of Hon. Zaake Francis Butebi of Mityana Municipality.
Firstly, the purported presidential directives are illegal, there is no enabling law that condones Mr. Museveni's haphazard way with which he issued the said directives.
That said, there is a serious justification for anybody that distributes food to the starving people; and that is, Ugandans are starving to death and yet the government has failed to deliver food that is purportedly earmarked for the Vulnerable poor to them.
Be that as it may, it is imperative to note that going by the available evidence which was actually extracted from the post he earlier alone made on his facebook page (MP Zaake Francis Butebi), any reasonable person would infer that whether he gave out the relief food items or not, there was maintenance of social distance as per the WHO guidelines, it would actually be naive for any person to adduce such evidence and depone that Mr. Zaake violated the presidential directives, which are by the way politically motivated but with want of anchoring on the law.
