IS EVERYTHING GONE WRONG IN UGANDA? HOW DO REFUGEES LEAVE THE CAMPS AND GET ON A BOAT EVENTUALLY CAPSIZING?



It is unfortunate how refugees could decide to leave a camp under the jurisdiction of Uganda as alleged that the conditions were harsh such that they ended up boarding a boat that was overloaded hence capsizing in the lake.  I thought that refugees in a camp in Uganda are under the authority of those Ugandan officials charged; however, how conditions end up harsh to the extent that the refugees left the camp and ended up on a boat which terminated their lives is most unfortunate and disturbing.

This situation needs to be investigated as it worsens the already bad record of Uganda, which is corruption.  If we have refugee camps, can the authorities exercise their duties as expected so that the lives of the people are not made worse off, but actually saved.  The image of Uganda has been so tainted by the development such that those concerned need to be more responsible.
