According to Luke Owoyesigyire, the deputy spokesperson for the Kampala Metropolitan Police, "The Territorial Police at Natete has registered a tragic incident of murder by shooting... Mr. Daniel Bbosa Lwomwa, the esteemed head of Ndiga clan and director of Transa Electrical, was fatally shot by yet-to-be-identified assailants as he was approaching his residence."

The assailants, mounted on a motorcycle, reportedly opened fire on Bbosa's vehicle, with the attack resulting in his immediate death.

The community's response to the incident was swift and dramatic.

As the investigation continues, the police extend "our heartfelt condolences to the family, clan members, friends, and colleagues of Mr. Daniel Bbosa Lwomwa during this difficult time." The community and the police force are united in mourning and in their determination to seek justice for Daniel Bbosa, whose untimely death has left a void in the hearts of many.
