Re: At least 9 killed in Uganda riots 11/09/09

Soojenite, that is the question Uganda's leaders should be thinking about. The riots could be just a symptom of something much bigger than we want to think. I notice the rioters are mostly young people; could that be indicative of lack of jobs and their frustration with the status quo? Rioting is very attractive for those who have nothing to lose, especially among unemployed youth.

May the innocent dead rest in peace.May the law catch up with those who violated human rights during the riots.

how can people throw stones and loot all the businesses cause their custom ruler or king whatever have been denied a visit?

We have a church where some of the members are doing missionary work In Uganda at some hospitals. We also have some friends that are helping out too and a couple of days after getting in Uganda these riots broke out.

They got caught up in it and were stuck for a couple of hours before making it out of the capital. They all made it out safely but of course Uganda is one of the safer and more quite countries in Africa.

Weyagala ssebo just tell the man that people are fed up, and that he should pack up for rwakitula.
