Quote: Uganda-Sudan border to be remarked Sunday, 20th December, 2009 E-mail article E-mail article Print article Print article By Catherine Bekunda The Uganda-Sudan border is to be redrawn in January 2010, the foreign affairs state minister, Okello Oryem, has said. He said a team of experts from Uganda and Sudan would embark on the remarking exercise on January 19, 2010. “We have invited our brothers from Sudan and the borders will be redrawn as they were demarcated by the international community,” the minister told The New Vision in an interview last week. Oryem rushed to Moyo on December 12 to calm tempers following claims by the Kajo Keji commissioner, Muki Batali Bulli, that parts of Moyo and Yumbe districts were in Southern Sudan. “My position is that we should listen to each other and follow the principles of fair justice,” Oryem said. Bulli, in a 17-page document, said the Sudanese land extends to Kelenderia through Opiro, all in the heart of Moyo town. He added that the land continues westward to West Eria Hill, Lefori and down to Wano, which are all in Moyo and had previously been free of controversy. Other areas include Dwani Wano, Goburi land, Bori, Liwolo, Koriwa and several hills and streams. Oryem said during the meeting, the Ugandan team refuted the claims by Bulli, saying they were not factual. “We are going to get the papers from London to show how that part of the border was demarcated and remark the border accordingly.” He said the papers were already in the country but due to the Christmas period, both governments could not mobilise everybody for the exercise. The minister explained that normally a representative from the African Union Commission would be invited, but said Sudan was free to pick anybody from the international community
