Ugandans who were displaced by the landslides in Bududa, eastern Uganda are to be resettled in an eco-village.

Sources in ministry of lands in Kampala says that the NRM government intends to permanently move the affected people from Bududa into highly developed settlement schemes where they would be provided with all the basic requirements in the beginning.

Sources told our informers that the integrated resettlement approach would involve the government to create townships with modern homes and schools but still in Bududa where the government thinks the landslides would not affect them anymore.

The eco village plan is different from the previous government plan where the government relocated some of the people to Kiryandongo in Masindi district. The sources told our informers that once the eco villages are formed it would be easier for the government to provide the people of Bududa with water and electricity.

Hajji Musa reportedly found his neighbour only identified as Joseph in bed with his wife Sarah.

A source in Ttula LCI village council told us that Hajji Musa reportedly beat Joseph and afterwards sent him away naked. The drama surrounding the story was that Joseph ran away with a condom on his dangling short leg.

The wife and the children of Joseph looked on in amazement with him arriving home naked and were left in utter shock!!! Talk about the price of adultery!!!

Late Kadugala died yesterday at the age of 140. He was born on 12^th January 1872. Kadugala has been one of the most influential members of his clan, village, Sub County, county and district. At the time he met his death, Kadugala could remember well the date, month and the year he was born. He could also tell his neighbours stories of how the British colonialists grabbed Land in Africa, violated human rights and divided people in Africa (Uganda) along tribal lines.

Mr. Kadugala, a resident of Kibula village in Luweero district, Bulemeezi County, in Buganda kingdom died in a night fire that gutted his house in which household property worth millions of shillings was lost.

The police detective on the scene told the press that the fire that ended the life of the oldest man in the world was started by the cigarette remains the deceased had reportedly lit.

Joseph Musoke, one of the grandsons of Kadugala described the deceased as the father of history and the nation whom Uganda, Africa and the world at large have lost. Other people have described Kadugala as a hero and that if the dead could raise Kadugala would have risen up and say good bye to his people. As it is known that African governments rarely respect old people, none of the government official has laboured to come to console the mourners yet the deceased has been a resource to many Ugandans.

The LC5 councilors will get 3.5 million shillings while those at the division level will earn 2.6 million shillings every month.

Every thing is included in the 3.5 million shillings. It includes constituency mobilization, transport and medical allowances. Councilors at the district and the division level will receive sitting allowance of 230,000 shillings.

But it is one sitting in three months. In addition to the sittings, there are also committee sittings. So if your councilors at the village level tell you that they get little money, you must know how much they earn per month.

He also shot the friends of Nakut one Mangadalena Longes and Namboze Miriam who were rushed to Tokora hospital but later Mangadelena Longes died of over bleeding while Nambozi is still nursing a gun wound she sustained on her left arm in the same hospital.

We suspect the cause of this act to be a relationship gone badly between the two.

Auda is still at large with his rifle and a force has been dispatched to hunt him down.

Mayanja had called upon all persons interested to take over the association’s leadership to hand in their application letters. The village polls were supposed to take place at the beginning of October and end in the first week of November this year. However, we have learnt that all this arrangement died in the bud and nothing took place.

When asked for a comment, the UYD secretary general, Samuel Kayayu Muyizzi explained that the polls would take place any time. He denied reports that UYD had failed to organise the polls.
