“The duo was picked by security team from Makindye Division, Kampala while distributing food. It’s alleged that the Prime Minister's office had given them to distribute the food that was donated by well-wishers to all the DJs,”Onyango said.
“Instead of distributing food to the allocated group, Nimrod called people and started distributing it without observing the social distance. He was supposed to deliver the food to DJs without gathering a crowd and he did the opposite.”
Police said the duo is detained at Katwe Police Station on charges of doing acts likely to spread infectious disease as investigations continue.
