Ugandan
government contributed major troops to the African Union
Mission
in Somalia and it fears the possibility of terrorist attack
carried
out by Al-Shabab in its country as the group performed terror
attack
in Nairobi Kenya two months earlier.
Spokesperson
of Al-Shabab, Ali Dhere threatened that his group would
carry
out attacks in countries contributed troops to Somalia, but it
is not
known their target and how it might be.
Uganda
is not where such attack can be taken like Kenya because its
officers
are not fragile in taking bribe as Kenyans.
Ugandan’s
threat at the moment may affect Somali community living
there
and others travelling to Uganda as Ugandan Airways operate in
Somalia.
Somalis
sees Uganda as its second country; they live in freedom and
enter
into Uganda without visa.
Terrorist
attacks are performed by Somalis having foreign
nationalities
and neighboring countries took fright from Somali
citizens
having no legal document or Somali passport.
However, Somali people
in Ugandan capital Kampala remained in their
homes
last night and many forces were patrolling in the main roads
and
neighborhoods.
