A Ugandan man, Kawempe who resides in Kampala was arrested over the death of his seven year old daughter. The man is said to have returned home from his bricklaying job at 7pm. Upon arrival, he asked Irene Nambalirwa, his 7 year old, if she had done her homework.

The grade two pupil who was studying at Eria Memorial Primary School in Lugoba, told her father that she had not. This lead to her being beaten to the point of death.

The girl resided with her father and stepmother. Her stepmother is said to have tried to restrain Kawempe from harming the child. She failed to do so and had to call upon neighbours to try and help stop her husband.

The neighbours immediately called upon the Child Protection Unit in Kawempe. The girl was immediately rushed to the hospital but unfortunately was reported dead when she arrived.

Its sad that these overreactions by parents are not new to society. Recently, a 14 year old girl had to seek a protection order from her father who beat her almost to death over virginity. No wonder corporal punishment is a very sensitive one and has people who have been working tirelessly towards its eradication.

For those children that are trying to find common ground with their African parents, we shared other people’s experiences and opinions on the matter.

A female ZUPCO conductor was shot and died on the spot in the Dzivarasekwa area. The police are said to have arrived late at the crime scene giving people plenty of room for speculations.

The ZUPCO conductor, Joyce Kuzhumbwa(22), was working in a ZUPCO-franchised Lofombo bus. The man who was suspected to have shot her was identified as Campion Marowa(35). Marowa is said to have worked as a security guard for a Harare company. An Astra revolver and two spent cartridges were recovered.

Campion Marowa is said to have been the last of four remaining passengers in the ZUPCO bus. He allegedly shot Joyce at Kadada Shops, Dzivarasekwa soon after 9 pm. Jeremiah Hove who was the bus driver, said the young lady was killed after refusing to surrender the bag of money.

Investigations on this case are still underway.

The pastor, Chris Enoch is from the Akwa Ibom State in Nigeria’s South-south. He is also the founder of Omega Word Global Ministries.

Okon Clan’s youth president reported the matter to the police on Wednesday. He stated that Enoch had killed his wife. The suspicions were caused when the couple’s five children complained to the neighbours that they hadn’t seen their mother for days. This disappearance followed immediately after the Pastor and his wife had a heated argument. During the squabble, the pastor had chased the children away and continued to fight his wife.

The complaints by the five children prompted the youths, lead by a community police officer, to conduct a search for the woman. They were shocked to find her corpse buried in a shallow grave in the pastor’s gated compound.

The Divisional Police Officer in Eket, Sunday Digha, is said to have refused to comment on the incident.

This is not the first time a pastor has been caught up in a scandal unbecoming of a man of God. A Zimbabwean was caught up in a scandal that lead him to step down as a pastor.
