Police front man, Fred Enanga, has announced that all public places without adequate security provisions will be shut down.
He has also called on the public to be vigilant and collaborate with the police to curb any insidious plot.
The police have also increased their surveillance at the country's borders. Reports indicate that individuals and vehicles entering the country are set to be subjected to a search and provided with security escort.
Last week, the United States revealed that its embassy in Uganda has received information of a plot to attack "places of worship in Kampala, particularly churches...in May or June."
Mr. Enanga also told the press that "For the last couple of months, our police counter-terrorism unit and other sister security agencies have been receiving reports of terrorist groups planning to carry out attacks in the capital, Kampala and other parts" of the country.
