I have passed near the site three times and have seen a progressive increase in the amount of soil being dumped to reclaim the wetland. I am sure some people at NEMA, Police and other bodies that supervise and regulate the environment take their children to Kampala Parents and have seen this destruction.
Should we expect the minister to take a tougher stand to save this wetland? If the person destroying this wetland is an investor, he should declare himself so and we shall complain no more! Otherwise, the wetland should be saved.
