UGANDA: You said you don't conduct diplomacy in press, why the panic now!!

YOU SAID YOU DONT CONDUCT DIPLOMACY IN THE PRESS; WHY THE PANIC NOW!!

“The Government of Uganda has taken a very cautious decision of not conducting diplomatic foreign relations between our country and any other country through the media. We leave that to the officials of Rwanda Government if they want to conduct diplomatic relations via the media, it is their choice,”

Government Spokesman while addressing the press last week.

Just a week later, today the same Spokesman said that;
"Let Ugandans know that there is a slight problem at all the three crossing border points between Rwanda and Uganda at Gatuna, Kyanika in Kisoro and Mirama hills in Ntungamo district,” Opondo said.
He said government of Uganda on Wednesday received information that Rwanda was not allowing crossings at Katuna because the road towards Kigali was under repair. He however, says that they were surprised to learn that by Thursday morning, even Rwandan students were not allowed to come to Uganda.
“Unfortunately, by this morning, they were not allowing even school children to cross from Rwanda to come for studies in Uganda,”

In the same regard, the Prime Minister informed parliament today that;
“The Hon Minister of Foreign affairs, Ndugu Sam Kutesa is on top of this situation on behalf of government and has contacted people responsible both locally and regionally,” Rugunda told Parliament on Thursday.
“The matter is effectively handled by government. We further regret the inconvenience that the wanainchi [masses] and the business people have suffered because of this temporary situation,” added the Prime Minister before promising to update the House on the matter on Monday.

The Prime Minister was responding to a matter of national concern raised by Hon. Bitangaro thus;
“the conduct offends the East African Customs Union Treaty that provides free movement of people, goods and services across the territory”.
“The restriction imposed by the immigration and customs officials at the Katuna border has caused a lot of concern, anxiety and inconvenience to people on both sides of the border,” the legislator added.

Why the panic now when there is still more in the offing!!!

INFORMATION IS POWER AND THE PROBLEM OF UGANDA IS MUSEVENISM
