For us we know that your dead, stop lying! Ugandans on social media insist that Gen Elly Tumwine is no more despite the minister clearing the air that he is alive and kicking 

Since Sunday morning, reports have been making rounds on social media alleging that Security Minister Gen Elly Tumwine is dead.

However, speaking about the claim, Gen Tumwine told Ugandans to disregard the information, describing it as fake news.

He said he is in good health.

“Dear Ugandans, I hope you are doing well. Please disregard the Fake News circulating on Social Media announcing my death. I’m neither hospitalised nor ill. Have a blessed Sunday,” Gen Tumwine posted on his official social media pages.

Nonetheless, despite clearing the air about his health, some Ugandans on social media has adamantly insisted that the senior army officer is dead.

“Even if you insist, for us we know that your dead, bye bye,” a one Eyezark Khan Cheune posted on his Facebook wall.

Another Picxon Ampurire claimed that some people were not convinced by the minister’s explanation. He alleged that someone could be managing Gen Tumwine’s social media accounts on his behalf when in real sense, he is dead.

“Wonderful general but people are not convinced claiming that someone is managing your account. Please record a #VIDEOCLIP for clarity .Thanks.”
