President of Uganda Orders Suspension of European-Backed Fund:

President of Uganda orders suspension of European-backed fund, Museveni said that. He had never consulted on the creation of a fund up to £ 100 million in cash reserves and run exclusively by a foreign mission in the East African nation. He wrote in a letter dated Jan 2nd. Hence, this is not the financing of a private enterprise. But the financing of state and non-state actors to achieve the political goals of the funders in Uganda. 

Patrick Ocailap, the deputy treasury secretary, told the Associated Press. After receiving instructions from the finance minister to whom the letter was addressed. Similarly, the finance ministry would handle the matter appropriately. Matia Kasaija, the finance minister, refused to comment, saying that he was unwell.

Wine caught the imagination of many at home and abroad:

The fund’s president, Nicole Bjerler, did not respond to e-mailed questions immediately. In an e-mailed reply, Danish Ambassador Nicolaj A.H. Petersen said the fund’s board had not received any formal communication from the government, adding that they remain open to dialogue with the government as development partners. Museveni, who has won all of the voting-related legal challenges has faced in the past, has denied charges of voting-rigging, calling the referendum the most cheating-free since Britain’s independence in 1962.

In his generational clash with Museveni. Moreover, Wine caught the imagination of many at home and abroad. The 38-year-old Wine has called for the resignation of the 76-year-old president, a US regional security ally who assumed power in 1986.

Concerns regarding Uganda elections were noted by the United States and the European Union. However, in a recent statement, US ambassador Natalie E. Brown cited deep and ongoing concern about the extrajudicial detention of members of the opposition political party, the reported disappearance of several opposition supporters, and continued restrictions on Wine party’s work.
