The National Resistance Movement (NRM) Vice Chairperson for Karamoja Region, Simon Peter Aleper, has died in a motor accident along Iganga-Tirinyi Road.
NRM inside sources have disclosed that the deceased was traveling for the ruling party’s Central Executive Committee meeting.
Busoga East Region Police, in a statement, said the accident occurred at about 1 a.m. at Bukoona along the Iganga-Tirinyi highway.

Furthermore, the accident was a head-on collision between a Toyota V8 registration number (UAP 787Q) and another whose specifics could not be readily established.
Mr. Aleper has been hailed by peers and senior NRM cadres as a staunch pillar of mobilization in the Karamoja subregion and will be missed dearly.
Aleper was driving the V8 and died on the spot, police said. The deceased was coming from the Mbale side and collided with an unknown M/V that was coming from the Iganga direction, lost control, and veered off the road.
Remember, Mr. Aleper lost to Francis Adome Lorika in Moroto Municipality in the last general elections.
In conclusion, here at uncoveredug, we send a sorry message to the family of the late Simon Peter Aleper. May the Lord strengthen the family at large; he will always be remembered for the good deeds he did for his country.
