The minister for disaster preparedness Musa Ecweru has directed the people living in the steep hills of Mt Rwenzori to relocate to area that are relatively safe.

Ecweru says the environmental degradation has inflicted on the environment across the country citing landsides, hailstorms and lightening among other dangers people on mountains are prone to.

He says that it will be easy for government to look after people when they are displaced somewhere else but not dead.

Experts say that the trees that used to control lightening have all been harvested and that when there are storms lightening finds itself going through human beings and sometimes animals.
