Reason Deep, Mr Meya and Your Cohort Politicians in the Awful Fight of Barifa Forest Ecotourism Project.

It’s only for the political benefit that has pulled you and your team into fighting that project.

For the other Mr Politician (Blood is thicker than water politician), he jumps into issues like a fly that drops into the milk!

He has forgotten how over 500 millions of money has gone missing after he caused it years ago.

The right time shall come to question these though they fear to be questioned by people (voters).

Must we commit injustice to attain political capitalism by concealing the truth from the ordinary people?.

Let’s have a brief insight in the total number of voters in that area (Barifa) where the political lepers intend to gain fame and votes by fighting legitimacy!

Barifa forest majorly covers six villages (cells); 1. Academy Cell, 2. Onzivu, 3. Arua hill cell, 4. Zambia, 5. Golf Course cell 6. Anyafio.

The total number of registered voters in these areas is roughly estimated to be 4,000 out of the over 30,000 registered voters in Central Division Arua city.

However, the total number of votes they normally cast in these six locations never exceeds 2,500.

How many votes did these self-centered politicians get there ?.

Factually, Barifa is a forest where there are no residents inside it.

These politicians frustrating this progress; What interests do they have in fighting development in Barifa?.

Am was informed that, Mr Meya is agitating for a share of land in Barifa forest! That is why he has woken just from no where to mingle himself into this shameful fight.

A very ignorant political dwarf who thinks he can permanently own a piece of land in Barifa forest but he has deceived himself by thinking so!

He thought Hon Oguzu is permanently owning Barifa forest.

What development proposals do you politicians fighting this project have ?.

Of what benefit is Barifa Forest to the neighboring villages and entire people of Arua City apart from been a Haven for thieves?.

So many people have lost their lives and properties in that forest which harbors robbers.

Why can’t we allow the forest to be developed ?.

Are we cursed to always fight whichever development comes our way in Arua and Westnile region ?.

Even if the enemies of progress are into this for their own political benefits, must they hoodwink the ordinary people (in this case the voters) and feed them on lies instead of telling them the truth on what the law pronounces about Barifa forest?.

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...

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.

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...
