The Government of Uganda has finally decided to come out publicly and explain to Ugandans what constitutes pornography. Information Minister, Karooro Okuruti says that perhaps this will stop Ugandans from promoting pornography.

She says that the government is going to explain pornography in both print and electronic mediums. Karooro also says that the government is drafting a bill that will stop the usage of pornographic materials in the Ugandan media.

Section 166 of the Penal Code Act forbids trafficking of pornographic materials in both print and electronic media. Currently Ugandan media houses are specializing in producing pornographic materials with a claim that they are so selling to the Ugandan young generation.

Karooro has also reminded Uganda’s media managers that Ugandan cultures in diversity don’t accept promotion of pornography.
