Addressing the media this morning, Kaihura said the police has received intelligence information that there are plans to launch protests in different districts including Jinja, Mukono, Kampala, Mbale and Masaka.
He says the protests will not be allowed coming at a time when the country is facing threats of attack by terrorists.

He says some of the youths are already in the country, while others are reportedly in Nairobi.
