Opposition members who asked British Parliament to investigate oil saga in Uganda face arrest on president Museveni orders

Opposition members in Uganda who petitioned the British Parliament asking it to investigate the oil agreements recently signed between Uganda and Tullow oil company face arrest.

Uganda intelligence officers intercepted this letter yesterday and handed it over to president Museveni who has now directed police to hunt for the people behind it.

The authors of the letter who are believed to be members of opposition Forum for Democratic Change or Democratic Party complains that Uganda signed oil agreements with Tullow oil company despite a Parliamentary resolution that put a moratorium on the signing of the same until relevant laws are in place.

Sources in security and government told our reporters that President Museveni is concerned about the letter because it could derail the oil production in Uganda. Once the security manages to nab the authors of the letter, police intends to charge them with economic sabotage and conspiracy to sabotage.
