In Kampala

Thirteen people were killed in rioting by the ethnically dominant Bagandans protesting the government of Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni.

King Ronald Muwenda Mutebi II of the Kingdom of Buganda has encouraged radio listeners to put into action their contempt for the government. Asians are often targeted and considered protected by the government with special holidays and tax benefits.

When King Ronald was barred from traveling to an area inhabited by the renegade Banyalas, the false rumor was quickly spread that he had been arrested.
