As it is now, there is a heavy security presence at Kauma Primary School grounds.
Dozens of uniformed police officers and plain-clothed security personnel have taken strategic positions around the perimeter of the school.
The atmosphere is tense, and members of the community have gathered in small groups nearby, whispering among themselves as they try to understand what has triggered such a response.
Reports from locals suggest that something significant is expected to happen at the school, although official confirmation from authorities is yet to be made.
Some sources allege that a high-profile political figure may be visiting the area, prompting the deployment of additional security.
Others speculate that the presence of law enforcement could be linked to intelligence reports about a planned protest or a potential security threat.
Security vehicles, including riot control trucks, have been spotted near the entrance of the school, adding to the growing anxiety among onlookers.
So far, no incidents have been reported, but the mood remains cautious as both students and teachers appear visibly unsettled.
Authorities have not yet released a public statement regarding the situation at Kauma, and efforts to get a comment from police spokespersons have been unsuccessful.
As the situation unfolds, many are hoping for calm and clarity, especially given the sensitive nature of involving school premises in potentially volatile situations.
The public is being urged to remain patient and avoid speculation until an official briefing is made available.
