"The prosperity of any nation begins with markets. Uganda Connect International Buyers Week is our deliberate strategy to bring verified international buyers to Uganda, allowing them to experience our products, meet our producers, and build a long-term commercial relationship. We are moving away from speculative trade towards demand that creates sustainable jobs, attracts investment and grows household income,” Rwabwogo said.

Police believe the incident was robbery-related, with Owori’s mobile phone among the property taken from him. The stolen phone subsequently became a key lead in the investigation. Detectives traced the device, leading to the arrest of the first two suspects before expanding the probe to individuals believed to have handled or purchased it.
