Congolese Arrested in Nimule South Sudan, for Selling Dogs Meat.

An 18-year-old Congolese national, Daii David, was on Tuesday arrested by police in Nimule town in South Sudan’s Eastern Equatoria state for selling dog meat.

Captain Richard Clement, the acting Inspector of Police in Nimule, told radio Tamazuj on Wednesday that the suspect admitted that it is not the first time he killed and sold dog meat in the town.

“On the 29th (last month), someone saw a person butchering a dog and that he has been doing that several times. He was seen under the bridge and someone brought the information to the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) and we went and arrested him.  We asked him why he was doing this and he said he is a businessman doing this work and that there was no one to support him financially. He admitted that he has done this work for a long time without people’s knowledge.” Captain Clement said.

The Eastern Equatoria State CID Director, Colonel Gabriel Guet Koang, confirmed the incident, saying there must be a solution to ensure all animals are slaughtered in specific places to avoid such malpractices.

“I gave orders that he should be brought here to Torit in the headquarters so that we make full investigations, we need to know how many dogs he has killed. How did he open his restaurant?  Because earlier I had informed the butchers in Eastern Equatoria in a meeting that they should slaughter goats and cattle in specific places witnessed by a veterinary Doctor and a member of the Criminal Investigation Department (CID). So anyone slaughtering the animal must be known and its ownership known, not stolen and must be healthy,” Colonel Koang said.

Colonel Koang said people have not followed this instruction, “because it might not be the first time people are killing dogs for people to buy, I need my people to eat healthy food, not these dogs.”

Daii David, who has lived in Nimule for a year is currently being held at Nimule Police Station.

UGANDA ELECTORAL COMMISSION TO ELIMINATE NATIONAL IDENTIFICATION CARDS (IDs) FOR 2021 GENERAL ELECTIONS.

The elimination of using National IDs (Ndagamuntu) for the 2021 elections should not have come as a surprise. One would be very NAIVE to think that Bobi Wine has not prepared for this in his Business Plan under the RISK section. It is public knowledge that our EC is not independent.  It is also public knowledge that Military Dictator Yoweri Museveni will never lose an election. What stunned us this morning is when we noticed that on social media, people were mocking Bobi with his "get your Ndagamuntu".  We are on record for saying to all Our readers that the National ID is like Apartheid in South Africa. Students of History would know how those IDs were being used to arrest people, deny them jobs, deny them basic services. Consequently, Bobi was not wrong and will never be wrong on the Ndagamuntu. Except the ones attacking him and mocking him forget that in Uganda, now, no National ID (Ndagamuntu), no service.  If you have not been denied registering your child i...

Here is Why Our Utterances For Praying Jesus And God To Come Liberate Ugandans, May Be Misplaced. This Phrase is like inform of a Letter To Some Categorized Section Of Ugandans.

Last week of March, a friend told me to pray for Uganda.  I told him that he was an Idiot and we have prayed for too long and we are still hungry and sick and Jesus is not coming soon to liberate us. He then ignored the STUPID and sent me a picture we all now know.  It got me totally messed up.  This guy was telling me to pray then sends a picture of men bowing down in blood.  He might have meant guns but I blocked him because his utterances of praying for Uganda were misplaced. I unblocked him 3 weeks later and asked him about praying and assassinations.  His reply "eithrr prayers or guns or both". I hate violence with a passion.  So he is now blocked in like FOREVER. Do you feel safe?  Do not feel safe. Uganda regim...

Parliament Urges Government to Provide Shs 4 Billion to Media Houses to Run Awareness Campaign on Tourism in Uganda.

Parliament also urged Gov’t to provide additional Shs4Bn to UTB to engage international and national media houses in production of positive media stories for improved destination image, following reports of drop in number of tourists from US, Europe and China visiting Uganda. "The National Development Plan targeted to cumulatively attract 281,760 International Tourist arrivals from US, Europe & China but only 67,252 arrivals were registered by the end of the first half of FY 2023/24. The U.S, Europe & China were key target source for leisure tourist who stay longer than business tourists. However, statistics show that international arrivals from the aforementioned areas have continue to drop. The UTB requires Shs4Bn to engage international & national media houses in production of positive tourism stories to improve destination perception in light of recent controversies that shade the destination in a bad light. However, this has remained unfunded,” said La...
