NgeyoMnga kunyaka ophelileyo, iJaji u-Albert Rugadya Atwooki wehlile kweli tyala phakathi kwe-Natinal Forestry Authority (NFA) kunye ne-Omukama yase Bunyoro Kingdom, Mnu Solomon Iguru Gafabusa, ngokubhekisele kwicandelo lomhlaba elide eliphikisanayo kwihlathi lase Bugoma elikwisithili sase Hoima e-Uganda. .
UJustice Atwooki urhoxile kwelityala emva kokuva ubungqina kuwo onke amaqela kwaye ityala belilinde isigwebo salo mmandla owawugcinwe ngo-1932. Izizathu zokuba enze oko zihlala zingachazwanga kuthi.
Kwasekuqaleni konyaka, uJaji Wilson Masalu Musene walithatha eli tyala.
Ngokutsho kwebali iNew Vision, elinye lamagqwetha ahlala kwiKhomishini yoPhando ngemicimbi yomhlaba, ekhokelwa nguJustice Catherine Bamugemereire; UJustice Musene bekulindeleke ukuba atyelele umhlaba ophikisanayo kwihlathi laseBugoma ngeyoKwindla kulo nyaka; phambi kwawo onke amaqela akwisuti.
Imithombo ikwaveze ukuba ngenene utyelele icandelo ebelikhuphisana nalo kwiBugoma Central Forest Reserve.
Nangona kunjalo, kwiveki ephelileyo, nge-25 ka-Epreli 201, iJaji yeNkundla ePhakamileyo yaseMasindi, uMnu.Wilson Masalu Musene uthathe isigqibo sokuvumela ukutshatyalaliswa kweekhilomitha ezingama-9 zehlathi lendalo nguHoima Sugar Works kulinywa ummoba. UJustice Musene nangona kunjalo uxeliwe ukuba khange alukhankanye utyelelo lwakhe kumhlaba okhuphisanayo xa wayefunda ukugweba kwakhe.
Esi sigwebo sikwacacisa ukuba ngokungangqalanga (nangona kucace gca) ugwebe ukuxhasa ukutshitshiswa kwendawo yogcino lwamahlathi ekwalikhaya leentlobo ezinqabileyo zezilwanyana zasendle kubandakanya ngaphezulu kwe-500 yeChimpanzee, iiMangabeys, iintlobo zeentaka ezinqabileyo kunye nobomi bezityalo ezahlukileyo.
Ngomhla wokuqala we-Meyi ka-1 kwaxelwa ukuba ukutshatyalaliswa kwehlathi laseBugoma kwakuqale ubuncinci ihektare enye yehlathi lendalo. Lo msebenzi ubukhokelwa nguMlawuli weHoima Sugar Works (engekachongwa ngegama). Wayehamba namagosa asebupoliseni ali-2019 asuka e-Field Force Unit (FFU) athi ngaloo ntsasa axabane namaPolisa oKhuselo lweNdalo kunye namagosa oMkhosi Wezokhuseleko wase-Uganda (UPDF) aqhotyoshelwe kwi-NFA.
Umbutho woluntu ovela kulondolozo, ukhenketho kunye nomanyano olusemthethweni sele beza kuthi ukuba bazokumilisela iphulo "SAVE BUGOMA FOREST CAMPAIGN" kwinkomfa yabezindaba ebibanjelwe e-Hotel Africana kule veki ngoLwesine we-2 Meyi 2019. Bathathe isigqibo sokufaka izicelo kwiofisi zikarhulumente ezininzi kubandakanya UMongameli wase-Uganda, uSomlomo wePalamente, kunye neJaji eyiNtloko.
Nazi ezinye izigwebo ezithe zadlula kwaleyo Justice, kwaye yabonisa abantu baseUganda uhlobo oluthile lokuchasana ngqo nemigaqo yolondolozo lokusingqongileyo ngokwenza njalo babonisa imeko yokungahoyi ilizwe kunye neendawo zendalo ezibuthathaka zomhlaba.
1. Ngo-2013, uJustice Wilson Masalu Musene wagweba ukuba i-Uganda Revenue Authority mayinike ama-832 ama-Ivory afunyenwe e-Ken freight Inland Container Deposit (ICD) e-Bweyogerere kubaninizo (abarhanelwa kulwaphulo-mthetho ababebhace kwaye benemvume yokubamba. ikhutshwe ngokuchasene nabo). Oku kushiye icandelo lezokhenketho lothuke kakhulu, kubandakanya nowayenguMphathiswa Wezokhenketho ngelo xesha. UMaria Mutagamba (RIP)! Amaqhekeza angama-832 amele malunga ne-400 zeendlovu ezibulewe ngenxa yeempondo zazo, ngokutsho kwamagosa e-Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA).
2. Kwelinye icala, ngo-2014, wakhupha umyalelo, ngela xesha ngeNakawa Court, ethintela i-NFA ukukhupha abantu abangenayo kumgxobhozo ekufanele ukuba bakhuselwe liGunya loLawulo lwezeNdalo kuZwelonke (NEMA) okanye, Inxalenye yehlathi eligcinelwe iNFA. Lo yayingumhlaba owawusakuba yinxalenye yendawo yokugcina yehlathi laseNamanve.
3. Umbono oMtsha ngoMvulo, umhla woku-1 ku-Epreli 2019, uxele ukuba iJaji yeNkundla ePhakamileyo uJustice Wilson Masalu Musene, iyalele iGunya leSizwe leZamahlathi ukuba liphume ngaphezulu kwamahektare angama-4,000 omhlaba wehlathi obangwa yiMfazwe yeHlabathi yokuQala neyesiBini eMpigi yesithili kwaye yayalela i-NFA ukuba igawule yonke imithi eyityalileyo emhlabeni kwisithuba seenyanga ezine. Ukwalele ngokusisigxina i-NFA ekubeni iqhubeke nokungena emhlabeni.
UJustice Wilson Masalu Musene wayezimase e-Uganda kwiworkshop yase-USAID malunga neZona ziQhelekileyo “zeendlela zokuqesha umhlaba kunye noLawulo lweziBonelelo zeNdalo eMpuma nakuMbindi Afrika”; ezenzeka eKigali ukusukela ngomhla wesibini ukuya kowesi-2 kuDisemba, 7. Sikholelwa ekubeni izigwebo zakhe zivela kwindawo enolwazi.
Uninzi lwezi zigwebo nangona kunjalo kumphezulu ujonge ukunikwa umhlaba, kodwa jonga ngakumbi kwaye uyakubona ukungahoywa okucacileyo kwemithombo yendalo ebandakanyekayo kuyo.
Amatyala agxile kumhlaba, kodwa kwenzeka ntoni ukuba eli lihlathi lendalo, okanye umgxobhozo, okanye indawo yokugcina izilwanyana? Akufanelekanga ukuba nguRhulumente waseUganda abeke iliso elibukhali kwimithombo yendalo ngaphakathi nangaphandle kweendawo ezikhuselweyo ukuze kuxhamle bonke abantu baseUganda?
Ngubani ke ekufuneka anikwe igunya lokuqinisekisa ukuba izibonelelo zendalo zelizwe ziyakhuselwa?
Ngaphandle kwemizamo yelizwe yokuqhuba imigaqo-nkqubo emininzi egqwesileyo yendalo esingqongileyo, iinguqu kwezomthetho nezamaziko ezijolise ekukhuthazeni ulondolozo kunye nokusetyenziswa okuzinzileyo kwezixhobo zeli lizwe, njengoko kunjalo kweminye imigaqo, unyanzeliso kunye norhwaphilizo ibingumceli mngeni omkhulu.
I-Uganda namhlanje inelona hlathi liphezulu kuguqulwa kunye nokuthotywa kwezinto kwi-Mpuma ye-Afrika iphela.
Ngokwengxelo yokuhlaziywa kwecandelo lamanzi kunye nokusingqongileyo ngo-2016, ukhuseleko lwamahlathi eUganda lwehlisiwe ukusuka kwi-24% ngo-1990 ukuya kwi-11% kuphela ngo-2015.
Kwiminyaka embalwa edlulileyo, urhulumente wanika u-Butamira usapho lakwa Madhvani usapho lwe Kakira iswekile, kwaye ngo-2007, wazama ukuthoba inxenye yehlathi lase Mabira ukuze lisetyenziswe ngumzi mveliso weswekile wase Mehta eLugazi, ngenxa yemizamo yabezolondolozo, imibutho yoluntu kunye noluntu ngokubanzi. , le ntshukumo ivaliwe.
"Umba wokubonisana kukarhulumente kunye nokwakha imvumelwano malunga namahlathi kunye neminye imiba esekwe kubutyebi bendalo isafunwa,"
"Kuwo wonke umhlaba wehlathi osele unikezelwe, ngaba bekukho ukuvumelana kunye nabadlali abohlukeneyo kwicandelo, kwaye ngaba kwenziwe uvavanyo olucokisekileyo lweMpembelelo yokuSingqongileyo kwezeNtlalo eziyimfuneko kuyo nayiphi na inkqubela kuphuhliso olunje phantse naphina emhlabeni jikelele?"
Impendulo yale mibuzo ilele entliziyweni yengxaki.
