Former Makerere University guild presidential aspirant and third year law student, Mr Joshua William Mukisa was abducted by unknown assailants on Friday night of May 17.

A series of campaigns and searches were launched even by the University administration but they all hit a dead end.

However on June 3, the people power guild aspirant was found dumped near a swamp in Bulenga in Iganga from where he was rushed to the hospital.

Mukisa has cleared the air about his kidnap. He claims that he was cornered by his abductors that evening as he was descending the College of Natural Sciences staircase.

The 21 year old alleged that he lost consciousness and therefore does not remember much about the incident.

“I was blindfolded and could only hear voices directing me to leave politics lest it destroys my studies. All this was happening in a dark room,

“I don’t know how I got out of the confinement, but found myself at a swamp in Bulenga then started walking to a nearby petrol station,

“It was there that I found a pump attendant who gave me a phone to call a friend whose number I knew off head. The friend, together with others, found me at the petrol station, took me for treatment and informed my parents,” ” Mr Mukisa narrated.
