Hi Maureen, Thank you very much for drawing our attention on this medical problem. Although i had read the news paper i had not paid attention to that particular article. I highly recommend that every one reads it for the good of our children. After reading the article i wish to know if someone can not sue the hospital for crippling thier child through quinine injection which according to the laid out medical rules is out lawed in Uganda for reasons clearly stated in the artilce. Alaka Caleb or any other "learned friend" should guide us on this. Most of this problems we suffer seem to be out of our own ignorance. Once again thank yo for drawing our attention to the article. Sam Andema

Here is another worrisome news on potential disabilities caused by quinine among our children in Ayivu county. Details in this link: http://www.newvision.co.ug/D/8/14/682475.

News in brief Monday, 25th May, 2009 E-mail article Idle youth to be arrested YUMBE-The district executive committee has asked the Police to arrest idle youth in trading centres during working hours. Local leaders said they reached the decision after realising that production had reduced because the youth shunned agriculture. The district is threatened by food shortage after a long dry spell. Addressing members of civil society organisations at Praford Conference Hall recently, works and technical services secretary Abdulutali Asiku said: “Those found idle will be arrested and prosecuted to serve as a warning to others.” Asiku also noted that food prices had increased because of low production, which had led to scarcity. He urged the residents to cultivate during the current rains to increase food security.
