Mayor gives tips on AIDS
SOROTI — Mayor George Egunyu has said preferential treatment of HIV/AIDS cases would prolong the scourge. “Let us keep sectarianism from AIDS. If we start talking of religion, tribe, politics in matters of AIDS then the disease will stay longer,†Egunyu said at the launching of mid-eastern regional Police HIV/AIDS implementation committee at Eneku village on Tuesday.
