The construction work is to commence in 2014 and it is expected to take three years and cost $4.7 billion. Burundi, Southern Sudan, Burundi and Rwanda are expected to contribute positively towards the construction of the multi-billion dollar railway network.

The construction of the multi-billion dollar railway network will run alongside the $3 billion Tanga-Arusha-Musoma-Kampala railway line that is expected to be completed in 2015 if all factors remain constant.

The multi-billion dollar railway network will be done by China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation. The multi-billion dollar railway network will be the main gateway of Mwambani Port in Tanga, Musoma dock and Port Bell in Uganda.

The feasibility study would be done in April this year while the construction of the railway line is expected to be completed in 2015.

Charles IngabireRIP, the editor of the Kinyarwanda Online media Inyenyeri magazine was gunned down by unidentified assailants on the 30^th of November 2010 in the gardens of Makies 2 Bar along Sir Apollo Kaggwa, a Kampala suburb.

However, fear has mounted onto both Rwandan community and journalists in Uganda over the increased operatives spying on their work. Ingabire is suspected to have been killed because of his journalistic work.

The 1951 Refugee Convention and its 1967 additional Protocols are the cornerstones of modern refugee protection wherein government guarantees the basic Human Rights and physical security of the refugees.

Therefore, the government of Uganda bears the prime responsibility  for protecting refugees within its territory and this includes promoting and providing legal and physical protection, and minimizing the threat of violence including deaths which many Rwandan refugees are prone to.

The committee set up by the community of Rwandan Refugees and Asylum seekers in Uganda had sought protection while holding a peaceful demonstration on 8^th of December between 10:00 am to 12:00pm en-route from Kisementi roundabout, through Kanjokya Street to Prince Charles drive where they would petition the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Refugees to look into their grievances.

A letter dated 6^th/Dec/2011  was written to the Inspector General of Police, Major General Kale Kaihura seeking for protection while peacefully demonstrating against the alarmingly rampant activities of intelligences that spy on their work in Uganda and the killings of Rwandan Refugees and Asylum Seekers.

The assassination of CHARLES INGABIRA epitomizes several other killings and security threats to the Rwandese community. The demonstration further sought to call on the International Community, especially UNHCR, the United Nations body in charge of protection of refugees and human rights defenders and the Government of the Republic of Uganda, the host country to take effective measures in ensuring the safety and protection of Rwandese refugees, journalists and other human rights defenders.  The demonstrators also wanted UNHCR to desist from riding roughshod to serious concerns of security threats and death of Rwandan refugees.

Also, the demo ultimately calls for vigilance, independence and thorough investigations by police and all other relevant security agencies into mishaps against Rwandese. These investigations should ensure that the cases are handled to their logical conclusions with the perpetrators being brought to book.

HRNJ–Uganda was reliably informed that Ugandan police force dilly-dallied with the leaders who had gone to police headquarters on 7^th/Dec/2011 to secure protection.

One of the leaders told HRNJ–Uganda that they reportedly went to police four times and appeared before different offices as they were being asked to go back after every three hours.

“Whenever we would go to police headquarters, officers there were telling us that nothing has matured and that’s how the day went without getting protection” said one leader whose name is withheld for security purposes.

Sources told HRNJ–Uganda that by 18:00 local time on 7^th/Dec/2011, there was still no response until the Inspector General of Police intervened, made a private call to the Rwandese leaders and managed to coerce them to postpone their intentions for a few days as they partake investigations into the matter in a meeting that lasted up to 21:00 o’clock. The IGP asked them to be patient and promised to grant permission at a future date.

“We were not surprised to hear that police blocked the demo. From our experiences with the Uganda Police Force, this is a normal routine! It was a hectic wild goose chase that yielded no result. The police’s response exhibits the high handedness, partisan, and repressive role the police is playing in abrogating the Constitution most especially Article 29 which provides for freedom of expression and peaceful demonstration” said HRNJ–Uganda Programs Coordinator Geoffrey Wokulira Ssebaggala

HRNJ–Uganda reiterates its former position that called for intervention from independent bodies like Interpol to investigate the gruesome murder of Charles Ingabire fearing for country relations that would jeopadise investigations.

He implored the civilian community and NGOs to be taking their vehicles to this facility for professional repairs at a fair fee. He also cautioned UPDF officers who will bring in their personal vehicles to be ready to pay so that the money can assist in maintaining the garage and servicing the machines used there in and also improving the welfare of UPDF soldiers operating in Karamoja.

The construction of this facility in Karamoja is aimed at helping both soldiers and civilians who have been trekking all the way to Mbale to do major repairs. Due to bad roads repairs in Karamoja has been a thorn in the flesh of many vehicle owners whose vehicles break down so often.
