DANGER PLANT EVADES KASESE,AUTHORITIES SLEEPING ON PROBLEM.
It might be wise to ask if Kasese district has a natural resources and environment officer to oversee any uprise against the natural resources and safety of the environment. As Roshimedia pens down there is deep worry on the current state of trees and the entire ecosystem as a dangerous plant ,yellowish and fascinating like a flower continues to bite and dry down trees.
This plant is surely unknown and culturally affects the mental status of the local people who refer to it as Kisirani ie devilishly cursed.
One mother in Rukooki Atanazia mama Madaraka a popular politician there was eavesdropped stating
“We are worried this plant grows faster on top of trees,it spreads everywhere on trees and kills the host tree. It destroyed my hedge here and has opened my home to the public again.Atanazia said it has Kisirani and advised everyone not to touch it.
Another resident Mary kobwaine said ignorant locals who don’t see future implications are spreading it faster they keep throwing its stems on top of trees and it grows fastest on every tree or vegetation.
The local Chairman 1 Peter Mbabagyenda one of Ugandas longest serving LC1 chair complained and said he was stuck with this plant in his village.
He said the district environment authorities were adamant, relaxed and not concerned about the threat this dangerous plant poses to the society.
