[...] Government soldiers are reported to have killed him on August 2, 1982 in Nakulabye, a Kampala suburb." (Our childhood was in exile - Patricia Magara)

Hook eligibility:
- Cited:
- The cited source only says that he told his daughter that he intended to see a dentist, not that this was his actual reason for going to Kampala. Is there a source that supports the stronger statement in the hook? If not, the hook and the article should be adjusted. - Interesting:
| QPQ: Done. |
Overall:

- @Mx. Granger: The source Who was Magara? (which is used as ref in the article for the tooth problem) says: "After the meeting, Magara and several other comrades decided to come to Kampala. According to retired Captain Tofa Agaba, Magara had a tooth problem, which he wanted treated in Kampala." Applodion (talk) 14:13, 10 October 2021 (UTC)
