In Kampala

President Museveni evening made a reshuffle of cabinet and state ministers and rewarded Mp Igara West Hon. Raphael Magyezi with a full cabinet ministry of local government.

In the same reshuffle was moved from the ministry of justice to the ministry of East African Affairs.

The transfer of Otaffire from the ministry of Justice and constitutional affairs to the ministry of East African affairs has brought a smile to the people of Mitooma because he has been using the ministry to persecute his opponents like Mp Kahonda Donozio and censured Mitooma district chairman Benon Karyaija.

In Kampala

The Buhweju District Woman Member of Parliament Katwesigye Oliver Koyechenga has come out to show her support towards creating of new administration unities especially cities and districts.

Koyechenga was speaking with our reporter recently, in an exclusive interview at the parliamentary premises in Kampala.

Her comments comes in a time when Parliament is still debating about elevating nine municipalities to regional cities including Gulu, Arua, Fort portal, Mbarara, Lira, Jinja, Entebbe ,Hoima and Mbale.

Koyechenga said the issue of creating new cities has however been slowed down by the East African Parliamentary Games which have seen most parliamentarians get busy and fail to attend all the scheduled Parliamentary sittings.

She asked all the Parliamentarians to support the idea arguing that new administration units bring services closer to the people and even increase on employment opportunities.

On a further note, Koyechenga warned fellow politicians against illegal campaigns arguing that they can visit and consult their voters but should abandon open campaigns until the right time is announced.

In Mitooma

Livestock farmers in some parts of Mitooma district are to get in panic following a reported outbreak of a strange disease called Black Quarter (Obuzimba).

Black Quarter disease is an infectious bacterial disease mostly caused by Gram positive bacteria called Clostridium chauvoei.

It affects livestock all over the world especially sheep, goats and cattle.

When the animal is infected, it develops fever, the affected led feels hot to the touch; the leg swells significantly and can finally lead to lameness.

Speaking to our reporter, Dr Judith Atwijukiire the veterinary officer Katenga Sub-county Mitooma district on Thursday confirmed that they have reported some cases of Black Quarter disease this month.

Atwijukire advised farmers to report any similar cases to the veterinary officers in their respective communities if they want to fight the disease easily.

“Some farmers just buy medicine from the drug shops without even contacting veterinary experts; they are in danger because this is a serious disease which needs attention”.

She also warned Ugandans against eating dead and untested meat of animals during this Christmas season because they may also get infected with some diseases.
