It is Baseless to Fight Hon Denis Lee Oguzu Over Barifa Forest Ecotourism Project - Lemeriga Fadhil.
Today, I had a rare encounter with the former Arua Municipality mayor and legislator Hon Saidi Nasur Okuti and we deliberated on the delayed degazettement of Barifa Central Forest Reserve, the fight between Hon Oguzu Lee Denis of Maracha Constituency and certain leaders in Arua City and the clashes last Monday the legislator had with a group of youths protesting the parceling of a portion to Oguzu in order
to develop an ecotourism facility.
We then asked ourselves why the same youths and their leaders weren't fighting Mvara Junior School, the office of the Director of Public Prosecutor, the Salim Saleh land acquired land and Springs Nursery and Primary School that have all encroached ILLEGALLY on the forest.
We came to conclude that the selective targeting of Oguzu for reasons best known to the perpetrators sets a very bad precedence for a young, multicultural and multiracial Arua City that has the chances of over taking any urban areas in the country considering it's strategic location and other factors.
The leadership of Arua City Council should therefore treat everyone without prejudice and segregation such that we harness all their natural and artificial potential.
Arua City deserves the BEST!
