Esther Mirembe Nkoko, the mother to the late Enid Twijukye has broken silence on her daughter’s death. Speaking to The Observer newspaper, Nkoko said that her daughter did not deserve to die at such an early age (22).
It is alleged that Dr Brian Bagyenda, with the help of two friends, suffocated Twijukye and dumped her body in Namanve forest. In his confession upon arrest, Bagyenda narrated that on January 4, he became infuriated after finding pictures of his girlfriend posing with another man on a phone he had bought her.
“He connived with two people to murder my daughter. They had to increase the volume of the television so high that the neighbours couldn’t hear her screaming, then tied her legs and arms.
They then sealed her lips with cellotape and suffocated her to death,” narrated a teary Nkoko, reconstructing the scene of crime in her head as confessed by Bagyenda.
“I don’t know if my daughter’s life was worth that phone. He would have taken the phone away from her and left her alive.
I really don’t know where he got the guts to kill my daughter,” says the mother-of-six. “I want him to be sentenced. Life imprisonment or death; that one will be for the court to decide.”
It is alleged that Bagyenda murdered Twijukye after he found photos of another man in the deceased’s phone which Bagyenda had bought for her. The phone cost shs800,000.
May Enid’s soul rest in peace.
