I STAND WITH UGANDA

           
In the aftermath of the violence, several people were hurt, businesses were destroyed, Crowds looting and setting alight shopping centers, were captured on videos and panic gripped the entire citizen population due to the uncertainty

“I was in my shop when a group of ten young men came in and looted all my goods and the money in the safe,” Faridah Nakazi, a shopk
eeper in Kampala, says. “They beat me before fleeing”. Taxi driver Silvester Owor laments how “thugs placed objects in the road forcing passengers to get out of the taxi. They beat them before taking everything they had”.

Soldiers working with the police managed to catch a few rioters; in total almost 45 were arrested, but law enforcement remained heavily outnumbered. Following the arrests made the opposition has gone ahead to provoke, attack, humiliate and create false propaganda in order to plant hate for the government to the public, they have gone ahead to mobilize the violent youth in order to tarnish the Ugandan security and destroy, vandalize the great achievements of the government of Uganda.
However, after conducting thorough investigations, the police and other agencies were led to believe that most of the protestors were hired and recruited by prominent opposition leaders trying to discredit the current government,
as a free will minded Ugandan, I appeal to the EU to join the fight against domestic terrorism being promoted by opposition leaders such that peace and stability can prevail and allow businesses to once again prevail.

WHY EAST AFRICA NEEDS THE EACOP.

There has been recent claims on a motion of resolution by the European Parliament that calls on Uganda and Tanzania to stop the development of oil and gas projects in the East African region.  However,  Uganda and East Africa need the Oil pipeline following public reactions towards the negative motives of the European Parliament. 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...
