OPPOSITION WRANGLES: UPC DISTANCES SELF FROM BESIGYE'S PEOPLE'S FRONT FOR TRANSITION (PFT)

While addressing a press conference at the party headquarters at Uganda House, Sharom Alach the party spokesperson said they had not received any communication from the newly formed pressure group with an intentiom of unseating President Museveni.

She further said that UPC has no intentions of joining the coalition because
the formed pressure group is not the solution to change that Uganda needs.

False Allegations Of Torture By NUP Against Security Agencies

                                                         Alleged torture victim, Eric Mwesigwa For a while, Security Forces have noted persistent attempts by some political opposition groups in Uganda to blackmail and demonize Government over false allegations of torture by Security Agencies.

It brings back colonial times, much as their arguments have a grain of salt, I dont think the the implementers of EACOP did not conduct Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA). This was done and all aspects taken into consideration. And besides that, Africa at large is the least contributor to climate change. They (first world countries) are the biggest contributors-they are burning fossil fuels like coal which contribute heavily to climate change.  They have refused to stop their use, they should tackle that First, before they start extending their concerns to us. We need this pipeline as a region, we should just look at ensuring its...
