The Ugandan government has warned of impending famine, cautioning traders to limit food exports and families to start food rationing.
Johannesburg - The Ugandan government has warned of impending famine in most parts of the country, cautioning traders to limit food exports and families to start food rationing, the Daily Monitor reported on Tuesday.
“Traders should sell food to areas like eastern Uganda, northern Uganda and the Karamoja sub-region which do not have food,” said Kibanzanga. The shortage of rain has been attributed, according to the UNMA, to the tropical cyclone which last month ravaged Mozambique, Zimbabwe and Madagascar and left an estimated 1 000 people dead.
