Dear Elly,
Thanks for this ellaborate information, it is very difficult to express
oneself when such tragedies occur however I will try and say may those
who have passed on rest in eternal peace and may those who have lost
their loved ones be comforted so as to gain the strengths to pursue the
world for the rest of their time around.
I would also hasten to add that we may also want to use these tragic
experiences to reflect on why they are high and what we all can
contribute towards mitigating these avoidable accidents! I cannot start
to fathom what solutions could be reached but again collectively we can
influence a lot of things!
I pray with you and others that we may overcome.

West Nilers,
The International Women's day national celebration will be hosted by
Nebbi in West Nile tomorrow and women of all walks of life will
converge at Nebbi boma ground to chronicle their struggle in building
the nation.
Just 80km up north in Arua we are mourning the death of close to 30
mothers (mostly) who have been struggling in petty small scale
businesses moving from one market to another using the most risky
transport. Imagine 30 plus women on top of an over loaded lorry with
their merchandise from one market to another.
6th March will be marked as a dark evening when our mothers lost their
lives in pursuit to fend for their families. This accident is the
third within two years but with the highest death tolll. My uncle
Lumaga Jimmy lost his wife in the same river Ala tragedy. We are
mourning not celebrating women's day.
As Uganda celebrates women's day, can gov't improve the conditions of
our roads and bridges to major markets as we encourage our mothers to
use different transport means from their cargo because over loading of
such trucks is apparent?
The Nebbi celebration should be entirely dedicated to the thirty or so
women whose families may need some support to enable them stand so
that they can eventually walk given business acumen.
May their souls rest in peace as we all join in helping mothers fend
for their families.
Thanks
Elly
