US president Donald Trump has demanded a speedy investigation and justice for American tourist and her guide who were released on Sunday after they were held for six days by unknown kidnappers.
Trump on Monday tweeted saying Uganda must find the kidnappers of Ms Kimberly Endicott an aesthetician from South California and her guide Jean-Paul Mirenge.
“Uganda must find the kidnappers of the American tourist and guide before people will feel safe in going there. Bring them to justice openly and quickly!,” Mr Trump tweeted just hours after President Yoweri Museveni tweeted insisting Uganda was safe for travelers and vowed to strengthen security in national parks.
“Uganda is safe,” Museveni wrote on Twitter, adding that authorities would “deal with these isolated pockets of criminals” and “continue to improve security in our parks”.
Ms Endicott and her safari guide, Mr Mirenge were recovered unharmed on Sunday after a ransom was paid for their release six days after they were abducted by gunmen while on an evening game drive in the Queen Elizabeth National Park.
