The Uganda Red Cross Society is pleased with the government’s move to have the survivors of the Budduda Landslide tragedy resettled in other parts of Uganda.

This comes just a day ahead of the time when 60 leaders will be taken to inspect Kiryandongo Refugee Settlement Scheme and the National Leadership Institute in Kyankwanzi where the about 3000 of the survivors will be moved for resettlement on 2nd September.

The Secretary General of Red Cross Society in Uganda Michael Richard Nataka has told journalists in Kampala that the society is delighted to know that the government has finally identified resettlement areas for Buduuda survivors because it has been waiting for this time when the government will find resettlement for these survivors.

Nataka the good thing is that the government has finally found these resettlement areas for the Budduda survivors.

Red Cross is one of the international organisations that worked to give aid to the Buduuda survivors after that dreaded landslide tragedy that left over 8, 500 survivors with nowhere to turn for options of resettlement.
