Police have commenced investigations into circumstances under which Godfrey Mbona, the treasurer of Kira Municipality was found dead in his office.
Police said the incident occurred earlier today, on October 4, 2023, at the Kira Division offices situated in Bulindo, Kira Division, within Kira Municipality, Wakiso District.
“According to initial reports, it is alleged that Mr. Godfrey Mbona arrived at work in a normal state. However, during his lunch break, something unusual occurred,” said Kampala Metropolitan Police Deputy spokesperson, ASP Luke Owoyesigyire.
“Upon returning from lunch, some of his colleagues noticed that he had locked himself inside his office,” he added.
“Concerned for his well-being, they peered through the window and were alarmed to find him lying against the wall of the office restroom.”
Owoyesigyire said “swift action was taken, and the matter was promptly reported to the Kiwologoma Police Station. The police responded promptly, and Mr. Godfrey’s body was retrieved and subsequently conveyed to the City Mortuary in Mulago for a thorough postmortem examination.”
The incident has sent shockwaves across Kira considering that Mbona was considered a very healthy man.
It is speculated that the deceased committed suicide.
But Police said their team of experts is “working tirelessly to determine the exact cause of Mr. Mbona’s tragic passing. We understand the public’s desire for answers, and we are committed to providing updates as soon as more information becomes available.”
