Medical Doctor and Singer Quex Arrested by Police in Kampala

George Kwesiga, who is also known by his stage name Quex, is both a medical doctor and a singer. On Monday morning, he was apprehended by the police and is currently being held at Kampala Central Police Station.

Quex graduated from Kampala International University’s Western Campus Medical School last year and, like other intern doctors, marched to the Parliament to meet with the Speaker of Parliament to discuss the delay in their deployment to government hospitals.

Reports indicate that Quex was taken into custody at Galloway House in Mulago and will appear in court on Tuesday along with others who were arrested, including the former Makerere Guild President Shamim Nabaasa.
