On Air Now: UBC Behind the Headlines with Timothy Nyangweso Topic: Balaalo Controversy in Gulu watch live ~ youtube.com/live/wwIw2DRHN… Tune in! | #UBCBehindtheHeadlines


I completely disagree with President Museveni's decision to evict the Balaalo from the North. I believe he is treading on very dangerous political ground - Andrew M. Mwenda #UBCBehindtheHeadlines


I’m not aware of any landowner in the North—be it a family, individual, or clan—who has claimed that the people occupying their land actually stole it from them. On the contrary, we’ve witnessed numerous land grabbing cases here in Buganda - Andrew M. Mwenda #UBCBehindtheHeadlines


I find it outrageous that Ugandans who genuinely acquired land through willing buyer–willing seller agreements are now being evicted. This goes against the Ugandan Constitution, Pan-Africanism, and the very essence of being Ugandan - Andrew M. Mwenda #UBCBehindtheHeadlines


I urge you, the Baganda, to behave like politicians in Northern Uganda—demand that all of us be evicted from here. Why should Basamia, Acholi, Batoro, and others have the right to own property in Buganda, yet the Balaalo are denied that same right in Acholi? - Andrew M. Mwenda







This is not about the Acholi or any particular tribe in the North. It all began when the President consulted northern Uganda politicians, who raised concerns about the Balaalo’s way of life, along with serious complaints from the local communities - Dr. Dr Kenneth Omona Olusegun


I recall during a meeting with the President, a migrant cattle keeper threatened that if they were evicted, their response would be seen in the elections - Dr. Dr Kenneth Omona Olusegun #UBCBehindtheHeadlines


When we sit in Kampala and form opinions based on newspapers written by others, we can often end up with a misleading narrative that strays far from the facts - Dr. Dr Kenneth Omona Olusegun #UBCBehindtheHeadlines


The government has a responsibility to protect the vulnerable, but this is not a tribal issue. The group the President referred to as the Balaalo were once evicted from Buliisa—so why wasn’t the tribal narrative raised then? - Dr. Dr Kenneth Omona Olusegun #UBCBehindtheHeadlines
