Cattle Rustlers Have Raided the Farm of Court Martial Chairman Lt.Gen Andrew Gutti in Lorengechora town council, Napak District, and Stole 130 Heads of Cattle.

Daily Monitor reported that the raid happened just hours after a peace and reconciliation meeting among three Karimojong clans; the Matheniko of Moroto, Jie of Kotido and Bokora of Napak and Turkana of Kenya which was held in Naitakwae ground in Moroto Municipality.

The suspected warriors who were fully armed took advantage of the heavy downpour and raided the General’s farm while the Local Defence Unit (LDU) personnel deployed to guard it were all asleep.

Major Peter Mugisa, the UPDF 3rd division spokesperson, told Monitor atleast 100 heads of cattle had been recovered so far.

Major Mugisa said the army recovered the animals in Kautakou village heading to Moroto District.

“We have so far recovered 100 heads of cattle but 30 are still missing. However, our soldiers are trailing them and I know we shall get them,” he said.

The raid comes just weeks after a group of unknown thugs broke into the General’s ancestral home and drove off with a Massey Ferguson tractor.

The suspected thugs broke into the General’s home in Iriiri Village in Iriiri Sub County in Napak District on March 31.

The thugs abandoned the tractor in a nearby bush after it ran out of fuel.

A week before that, the General’s Orange farm was set on fire.

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.

https://m.facebook.com/yusufosuta/photos/a.1896701010557789/2070383359856219/?type=3 OPEN LETTER TO NRM SUPPORTERS - NATIONAL ROBBERS MOVEMENT. .................................................................................. 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...
