Ugandans who were displaced by the landslides in Bududa, eastern Uganda are to be resettled in an eco-village.

Sources in ministry of lands in Kampala says that the NRM government intends to permanently move the affected people from Bududa into highly developed settlement schemes where they would be provided with all the basic requirements in the beginning.

Sources told our informers that the integrated resettlement approach would involve the government to create townships with modern homes and schools but still in Bududa where the government thinks the landslides would not affect them anymore.

The eco village plan is different from the previous government plan where the government relocated some of the people to Kiryandongo in Masindi district. The sources told our informers that once the eco villages are formed it would be easier for the government to provide the people of Bududa with water and electricity.
