This letter serves to invite you for a consultative meeting on our pronouncements against harmful cultural practices, teenage pregnancies and child marriage. 

 

The engagement follows clan level dialogues in which clan leaders expressed the need to harmonize the position of the cultural institution with the District Councils for smooth implementation. 

 

The activity is intended to inform the District council on the position of Lugbara Cultural institution on harmful cultural practices, teenage pregnancy and child marriage so as to make or improve appropriate bi-laws against the vices to be implemented by the District Council in collaboration with the Cultural institution. 

 

The meeting shall be held at Maracha District Headquarterson Wednesday 28th September 2022, starting 10:00am prompt till 12:30pm.

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

By Editor
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.

"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...
