UPDATE: Civil society organisations in Masaka have called on leaders to help communities affected by the East African Crude Oil Pipeline (EACOP) seek justice over alleged rights violations and property-related grievances. The call was made during a regional accountability meeting organised by the Uganda Consortium on Corporate Accountability (UCCA) through COTFONE, bringing together project-affected persons, EACOP officials and government representatives. Kayinga Muddu Yisto, the coordinator of COTFONE, says the affected persons raised concerns over alleged unfair compensation, delays in administrative reviews, right-of-way demarcations exceeding the compensated 90 metres, and poor drainage from pipeline trenches that has affected their gardens.

@MuhooziGen_ I truly miss hearing such thoughtful messages from you. This one feels like one of those meaningful statements you have made as we close the year. Need more of these than the other....
@MwesigyeFranks@PoliceUg@mkainerugaba@ChrisOMagezi@mkituuma@KawalaRachael Where were these concerns when NRM goons were battering NUP supporters?๐คcan we condemn VIOLENCE at whatever level? For you, brutality by security officers, NRM supporters on NUP and other opposition supporters is a job welldone. SAY NO to violence.
