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 sustainable enough-the people well compensated and livelihood alternatives for the affected people taken into consideration.
This is another group of racists seated in Brussels imagining that they can decide the fate of two sovereign states that have the best interest for their people. As Ugandans, we should fight this racism and neo colonialism. Africa is energy poor and must use our resources.
EACOP should continue following ISO operating procedures mindful of the environment, human rights and all other obligations.
EACOP shall not stop. Europeans have a lot of work to do to restore African ecosystems in places they have been involved mining lucrative minerals , oil etc; e.g Congo, Nigeria, Mozambique, Angola.

  KAKWENZA TORTURE ALLEGATIONS, AN ELEMENT OF THE KAWUKUMI AND FALSE ACCUSATIONS AGAINST GOVERNMENT.                                          Famous Novelist Kakwenza The current famous novelist Kakwenza Rukirabasaija has been one of the key players in the blackmail game. A strategy of attacking and insulting the CDF and the First son Lt. Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba has yielded fruits after he was arrested for questioning. This quickly invited all silent players to rush on blaming the government accusing the first son and the President for being dictators who don’t want to be accused. The plan almost failed when Kakwenza was released from prison on bail without any scratch on his body and this would have been a setback in the plans at hand. Upon release from Prison, an unidentified vehicle allegedly kidnapped him at a spot of cameras. This is another move to accuse the government of kidnapping its people as Bobi Wine has always alleged after such incidences happen. This was of cours

SPIRE SHOOTS HIMSELF IN THE FOOT

  Spire the renowned lecturer enjoys from his sweat, he does not embrace the lecture rooms for free, and this guy knows how to feast on the flesh of his young barmy sex fresh juices from high school. He ably does it with a lot of satire in that he makes jokes and cartons about it. In one of his cartons he is seated face to face with a one Mbabazi a student of philosophy at one of the Universities he lectures. Where he sarcastically asks the student where the “V” is for “M”.   Little did he know that this same young girl is a sister to a one Tukundane Perry from Makerere. Who says repeatedly had retakes and Spire always shagged her promising to give her marks in return. She says with the number of girls he has used the marks attained from his lectures are questionable. Perry with this history was compelled to warn her sister about Spires’s trickeries of getting into the girls skirts.   Perry had once faced Spire’s jiggling stick and gotten pregnant by him when forced the nav
