A primary school head teacher was shot dead by robbers who had raided his home in Buteba Village, Teso South in Busia County.
According to the widow, Prisca Amoit, the assailants, armed with guns and machetes, attacked Charles Emoto, the Ong’arima Primary School head teacher, during the night and managed to escape with an unknown amount of money that belonged to a local table banking group.
“Walinipata nikijaribu kujificha. Nikijaribu kuingia chini ya kitanda lakini wakanionyesha bunduki. Toa sanduku ama hii bunduki ikumalize. Wakanionyesha kwa kichwa. Sasa mahali nilikua nimelala sanduku ilikua hapo tu kwa kichwa. Nikawaambia sanduku ndio hiyo, wakatoa sanduku, wakabeba wakatoka,” said the wife of the deceased.
