My friend Godber Tumushabe of ACODE argues that if the top leadership (read President Museveni) demonstrates the will for uncompromising implementation of environmental policies, this deepening water crisis can be averted. However, the President argues that he wants to create jobs for the citizenry and to boost Uganda’s economy. Can this be achieved, and is it sustainable?
Can Ugandans be guided to engage in profitable ventures that don’t compromise the wider environmental needs? ACODE, a body of policy gurus, should provide guidance and answer the seemingly legitimate concerns of the President. Finally, as I sign off, I say that you either can become environmentally friendly, or perish. That is what I wish for you and for myself. Over to you, fellow Ugandans.
