Mourners throng Gen. Paul Lokech’s home village

Hundreds of people have continued to gather in Pader district to mourn the death of Major General Paul Lokech, the former Deputy Inspector General of Police. On Saturday, the country was shocked to learn about Lokech’s death.

According to police investigations, the Deputy IGP died as a result of blood clots that made it difficult for him to breathe.

Residents of Lubele South, Pader town council, were shocked when they learned of Lokech’s death.

According to Charles Okot, a resident of Ogwaleng village, the country has lost a disciplined, principled, devoted, and valiant son who cherished peace and harmony.

He recalls Lokech’s attempts to restore peace in Kitgum Diocese after the late Bishop Benjamin Ojwang was driven out by enraged Christians. According to Vincent Okello Balmoi, a local elder, Maj. Gen. Paul Lokech’s death has left a significant void in the region and the country as a whole.

As the Acholi people grieve the death of Maj. Gen Paul, Vincent M. Okidi, an opinion leader in Pader district, says they should put their trust in God.

He believes the authorities should come forward and provide clear information about their son’s death.

The late Lokech’s family, according to Okello Dickson, the chairwoman of the Pa Lumbele clan, wants to know the actual reason of death of their son.

Okee Dusman, the Pader Resident District Commissioner, encouraged individuals with differing perspectives on Lokech’s death to give his family time to grieve their son in peace.

He stated that they had begun their funeral preparations.

On Friday, Maj Gen Paul Lokech will be buried at Lubele South, Pader town council in Pader district, where he was born.
