Weekend reading

Governor Cohen

Want to know more about what happens in Uganda - written by the ugandans themselves? Then the Monitor  might be a good place to start.

According to our sources, the ugandan newspapers actually do have their freedom to write critical stories - although they might sometimes get in some kind of trouble for it. But they persist and the Monitor covers a lot of what of happens in Uganda.



This week, for instance, you can read about a ugandan human rights group, who is protesting against police violence. But you can also get a glimpse of ugandan history as the Monitor tells the story about the English Governor Cohen who prepared the road to independence for Uganda.
