GOVERNMENT FINDS SOLUTIONS TO KARAMOJA HUNGER PLIGHT

Yesterday July 19, 2022 The Minister for Relief, Disaster Preparedness and Refugees, Mr. Hilary Onek and Napak District Woman MP Faith Nakut flagged off relief food worth 552 metric tonnes of maize flour and 238 metric tonnes of beans at the Office of Prime Minister Stores in Namanve, Wakiso District 
On the same date, the Government dispatched 790 metric tons of relief food to Karamoja Sub-region, whose people are on the brink of starvation.
The food is targeting 600,000 people in Kotido, Kaabong, Moroto, Napak, Karenga and Nabilatuk districts that are worst hit by famine. The Government attributes the hunger to effects of climate change, cattle rustling and insecurity.
The Karamoja operations, includes their neighborhood, which is also suffering and the vulnerable people like children with nodding disease syndrome in areas of Kivu, parts of Lamwo and Pader districts.
This is the second time the Government is sending food to Karamoja in two weeks. It sent 2,000 metric tonnes of food last week.

THE CURRENT STAGGERING STATE OF NUP IS SO WORRYING DUE TO CONTINUOUS FAILURE

    The National Unity Platform party was built on social media falsehoods, blackmail and public threats in 2019 when the then Kyadondo East MP Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine declared his interests in contesting for the highest office in Uganda against President Museveni. Social media was stormed with falsehoods against Government officials, institutions, service delivery and projects that have at several occasions been watered down by unpatriotic citizens with interests of leading the country. As a result, several bloggers both Ugandan based and the diaspora were hired to ensure the blackmail campaign is sold to the Ugandan community on media and continuous call for sanctions and interference in the politics of Uganda by the international community. The continuous call for sympathy from the international community based on falsehoods has not yielded any results due to their ability to establish a Uganda different from what the NUP Principal and propagandists have s...

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...

There is a saying that says; "What will swallow you is usually part of the nice garment you often want to put on. Everyone since the inception of NUP has always wondered why the NUP delegation Conference chose David Lewis Rubongoya as the Secretary General of the Party. Let's pause A bit, what if this was a state intended choice to ease its spy activities in the NUP party?? It's wise to know and intently perceive that a Secretary General in any political party has almost more powers than anyone else.  Family background According to our trusted sources, Lewis Rubongoya is a Mubiito Munyoro whose parents shifted from Bunyoro to Mbarara District. His father was an ordinary veterinary doctor and the mother was an unlicensed teacher who stopped teaching at a young age.  David Lewis is the fourth out of five children from the mother's side and the ninth on the father's side because the father had four other children from a different mother. The Father later o...
