Book Description
In February 2006, Ugandans voted in the first multi-party elections in almost 26 years. President Yoweri Museveni and his ruling National Revolutionary Movement (NRM) parliamentary candidates won a decisive victory over opposition candidate Kizza Besigye and the Forum for Democracy Coalition. Nevertheless, poll results showed a notable decline in support for President Museveni from previous elections. International election observers did not condemn the election results, nor did they fully endorse the electoral process. Critics charged the government with intimidating the opposition during the pre-election period, and Besigye spent much of the campaign period in jail. The election followed a controversial move by the Ugandan parliament in July 2005 to remove the constitutional two-term limit on the presidency. In the north, the government of Uganda has long fought the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA), an armed rebel group backed by the government of Sudan. Through over 20 years of civil war, the brutal insurgency has created a humanitarian crisis that has displaced over 1.5 million and resulted in the abduction of over 20,000 children. In 2006-07, the government of Uganda and the LRA have been actively engaged in an effort to resolve the conflict peacefully. The Government of Southern Sudan (GOSS) has been mediating the talks since June 2006. In August 2006, the government of Uganda and the LRA signed a Cessation of Hostilities Agreement. In February 2008, the parties agreed on a Permanent Ceasefire, amended the Agreement on Accountability and Reconciliation, and the Agreement on Comprehensive Solutions. However, the leader of the LRA, Joseph Kony, failed to show up for the final signing of the agreement on a number of occasions. Kony and his forces are in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).

The key drivers for the country’s value from these resources are through the participation of its people and its enterprises in the provision of goods and services, enhancing the linkages between oil and gas and other sectors of the economy, and the revenues to be generated when production of oil starts.” Ernest Rubondo, Executive Director, Petroleum Authority of Uganda The Energy Year Uganda 2022 also includes a map featuring Uganda’s planned oil and gas infrastructure and licences, as well as the East African Crude Oil Pipeline (EACOP) infrastructure. This second edition of The Energy Year’s Uganda series is the most updated in-depth analysis and comprehensive guide on the evolving Ugandan energy market – it underlines the key projects that will shape the Ugandan oil and gas value chain of the future, and identifies the country’s potential and untapped opportunities.

THE SILENT SUNSET is a biography of Sirayo Yona Nyeko, born and raised in colonial Uganda, during the middle of the twentieth century. With the advent of the brutal regime of Idi Amin in Uganda, 1971-79, Sirayo sought sanctuary in his own innocence and his faith in mankind, a faith that would be sorely tested with ultimately tragic consequences.
