This afternoon, I held a meeting with Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA) and the National Forestry Authority (NFA), along with the Mitooma district Speaker Mr. Tumwekwatse Moses and local stakeholders to deliberate on the ongoing opening of the boundaries of Imaramagambo Forest in the sub-counties of Kigyende and Kiyanga. This has caused an uproar in those communities, as people's properties and crops have been destroyed during the exercise.
I'm glad we have resolved the issue with @NFAUG clearly showing that their boundaries don't extend to people's land. Overzealous surveyors who had gone beyond the border demarcations of Queen Elizabeth National Park have been stopped.
I thank the management of NFA for this swift action.

I remember in 1986, I evicted people who had invaded Mabira Forest following Amin's order to take over the forest, claiming it had no value and should be used to grow crops. Such sheer ignorance is dangerous - President Museveni

Replying to @stuartmani1
@stuartmani1 "We have been struggling with creating awareness on the dangers of not taking care of forests but the climate change of late has helped us get people aware of the dangers of not protecting the forests".
