Mr Anyama said for many years the Communities of this Sub County have suffered in the hands elephants but the government pays no attention to it.
“They destroyed property like crops,fruits,houses and including live.The livelihoods of people have been lost because of Elephants invasion and government attention to solve the problem and many times in meetings or offices when we speak up about the challenges caused by elephants some serious leaders then to laugh at us why are we complaining about elephants yet it should be looked at as tourism attraction prospects but these are elephants that comes from South Sudan and there are no tourists that are coming in Dufile Sub County to see this Elephants”
“There is no income government of Uganda is earning but also the elephants are wild not useful to the economy of Uganda and welfare. Today I can’t hide my joy over the killing of one this elephants; I’m actually more than excited my only problem is only one elephant was killed I wish about 10-15 or more were killed because we have lost human beings whose lives you cannot compare to the lives of elephants this people have left orphans and families vulnerable so no attention has paid and I’m now suure that one elephant has been killed government will pretend to pay attention to this problem but we are waiting to see whether elephants are valued more than human
