In his New Year’s address, President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni has vowed to deal with rising crime which he says is abetted by corruption and laxity of the Uganda Police. He also lashed out at Ugandans who disrespect the environment by encroaching on swamps, invading the natural high-rise forests or settling on Mountain –slopes steeper than 32o saying the act constituted self and national suicide.
