Nsereko told journalists at parliament that although he made a transaction yesterday from Crane Bank, the allegations that he was detained are just intended to silence him from articulating issues which affect Ugandans.

“Nothing happened. I have not been arrested or charged anywhere. I walked in two  banks and did my transactions for my business. I withdrew 17.5m and even exchanged dollars from Equity and Crane Bank

“Those who say that I was detained at the bank have intentions of tarnishing my dignity in the public. They want to channel me from doing my work. Even if some people tries to deform my name I will still stand strong” Nsereko noted

“I would like to tell my voters in Kampala and the whole country at large that am free not even ever detained by police as rumours have been circulated by unknown people,” He added.
