PDP President Dr Bwanika Speaks out on Kham Kakama

We need special Courts

We demand for an express judgment system for offences committed against the vulnerable society (children, women, PWDs and the elderly).
Special courts should be put in place with express mandate to administer justice within days. PDP would like to propose 21 days maximum period to dispose off such cases.

We further propose a special investigation department under police charged with investigations in connection with the vulnerable groups.
The officers must be given the required training to match the criminals.

We demand for updates from police and judiciary on the 1000 cases involving children that were kidnapped or went missing in the last 18 months. The Parliament should demand progress on behalf of the people of Uganda.

The way to go on fighting evil in Uganda including crime against children is action not posturing. An open execution is befitting for the criminals that killed Khan Kakama and the likes.

For God and my Country.

Dr Abed Bwanika.
President PDP.

Electricity; Uranium for Energy

A nation that does not supply or manufacture enough energy for it's citizens will never sustain fully it's economy.
And if there's any chance to increase energy development, we've got to do it faster .

Uganda's energy distribution does not fully require private sector involvement if we are do away with exploitation.
Always the most important and crucial sectors of the economy need to be in hands of the government to necessitate requisition and utilization of resources, services and commodities on affordable fees by every national.
This explains why it was a mistake for the only Hydro Electricity Power distribution government enterprise to be privatized.
PDP is not saying that UMEME has not lived to it's expectations and that it's services are undesirable.
This should be got clearly that much as this company strives for excellency in the provision of it's services, many Ugandans remain dissatisfied especially at this time;
Whereas being a business like any other profit oriented company- it's not fair thinking about fixing a standard fee on electricity consumption as it wants to do (consumption of 0-50 units for 12000 UG X and 50-70 units for 26000 UG X).
An honest company would continue charging only for what a consumer has used.

Ugandans should also help UMEME while it losses millions every year to those who consume unpaid power and to those who steal it's gadgets.

PDP advocates for gentle and polite approach to this issue, we want electricity prices as mentioned in this year's budget to be implemented.

We ask that the power project in Jinja be not delayed.

There's no problem building a Uranium Power plant since we have this mineral in abundance as long as we comply with the International Laws.
President Museveni should not give politicians as an excuse for failed government programs like Kaluma Dam power project.
