Hello,
It seems like a situation of unclear circumstances, lets investigate further and get all our information right but swiftly of course. I am with you, we need to do things for a good of all From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Caleb Alaka Sent: 14 December 2010 15:34 To: A Virtual Network for friends of West Nile Subject: [WestNileNet] Barifa Land Grabbed As you are all aware, Barifa forest is one of the Central Government Forest reserves. Some two or so years ago, Arua Municipal Council attempted to expand and extend its boundaries for a better planned Town. The Municipal then applied to the National Forest Authority to have Barifa de-gazetted. NFA accepted on condition that the Municipal Council got an alternative land for the forest. Municipal then got land worth 100 Million Shillings in Logiri and it has been paying for the land. I understand the Municipal Council intended to re-plan Barifa into a new Arua Town. Now some people have emerged from nowhere claiming that they are acting "on orders from above" and they have been clearing Barifa forest. The RDC Arua is the one purportedly supervising these people who have moved several trucks on the land. For us to act as WNF, we need a resolution and or a consent of the members so that we instruct our lawyers to file a suit stopping these guys from constructing any thing on the land and evicting them. If this situation is not arrested, Arua Municipal Council will loose the 100 Million shillings, we shall not have a better planned town and we shall in the words of the Bishop be worthless.
