Dowladda Uganda ayaa ka jawaabtay kana soo horjeesatay cunaqabateyntii ugu dambeysay ee Mareykanka uu ku soo rogay guddoomiyaha baarlamaanka Annet Annita Midda iyo mas’uuliyiin kale.
Wasaaradda Arrimaha Dibadda ee Mareykanka ayaa cunaqabateyn dhanka socdaalka iyo dhaqaalaha ah ku soo rogtay Mid ka mid ah iyo seygeeda Moses Magogo, kadib markii ay ku eedeysay wax ay ugu yeertay musuq maasuq weyn oo ku xiran booskeeda hoggaamineed.
Kuwa kale ee la cunaqabateeyey waxay ahaayeen wasiir Amos Lugolobi iyo xaaskiisa, iyo wasiiradii hore ee Karaamoja; Agnes Nandutu iyo Mary Goretti Kitutu iyo seygeeda oo lagu eedeeyay inay si xun u isticmaaleen hantida dadweynaha iyo ka weecinta agabka bulshooyinka ugu baahida badan Uganda. Cunaqabataynta ayaa sidoo kale lagu bartilmaameedsaday Lt Gen Peter Elwelu doorkii uu ku lahaa isku dhacyo dhexmaray ciidamada ammaanka Uganda iyo koox maxalli ah oo ay ku dhinteen in ka badan 100 qof.
Isaga oo ka jawaabaya, wasiiru dowlaha arrimaha dibadda Uganda, Oryem Okello ayaa sheegay in tallaabada dowladda Mareykanka ay si dhab ah u beegsaneyso.
“Waxaan aaminsanahay in tani ay tahay aflagaado waxayna wax u dhimaysaa nidaamkayaga garsoorka,” Okello ayaa yidhi.
“Cunaqabatayntu waa cadaalad darro. Waa ciqaab,” ayuu yiri. “Waxay yihiin cagajugleyn sababtoo ah waxay og yihiin inaanan samayn karin wax liddi ku ah. Waana ula kac ah in lagu ciqaabo afhayeenka doorkeeda iyo hoggaankeeda si ay ula dagaallanto LBGTQ iyo khaniisnimada Uganda.”
Waxa uu ku dooday in dhammaan wasiiradii la cunaqabateeyey ay hadda horyaalaan maxkamadaha Uganda, kuwaas oo aan weli go’aan laga gaarin dacwadaha loo haysto.
Waaxda arrimaha dibadda ee Mareykanka ayaa sheegtay in ay garab taagan tahay dadka reer Uganda ee u ololeynaya mabaadi’da dimoqraadiga ah, dowlad wax u qabata dhammaan muwaadiniinteeda iyo la xisaabtanka falalka ay geystaan kuwa ku takri fala jagooyinkooda musuq-maasuq iyo ku xad-gudubka xuquuqda aadanaha. Mary Anne Nanfuka oo ah falanqeeye dhanka siyaasadda ah oo u dhalatay dalka Uganda ayaa sheegtay in dadka cunaqabataynta lagu soo rogay aysan iskood u dhaqmin, cunaqabateyntana aysan marnaba u shaqeyneyn sidii wax looga celin lahaa.
“Waxaan arkayaa in wadamadan reer galbeedku ay rabaan in ay u hiiliyaan codkooda,” Nanfuka ayaa yidhi.
“Waxay si fiican u ogyihiin inay u baahan yihiin in dawladu ay kala shaqeyso meelaha qaarkood. Markaa, mar haddii riixid u yimaaddo in la tuuro, way u oggolaan doonaan inay dhaafto. Haa, waa tilmaan, laakiin maya, weli lama cajabin, ayay tidhi.
Chris Obore, oo ah madaxa arrimaha bulshada ee baarlamaanka Uganda, ayaa sheegay in eedeymaha musuq-maasuqa ay yihiin kuwo siyaasadeed oo ay wadaan, haddii kale ay beegsan lahaayeen dhammaan golaha wasiirada Uganda.
Wasaaradda Arrimaha Dibadda ayaa si gaar ah u xustay bixinta saqafyada birta ah ee loogu talagalay bulshada saboolka ah, laakiin taas beddelkeeda ay wadaagaan xubnaha ugu sarreeya dawladda dhexdooda.
“Waa calaamad muujinaysa cadhadooda qarsoon ee ka dhanka ah af-hayeenka si uu u hoggaamiyo sharciga ka-hortagga khaniisnimada,” ayuu yidhi Obore. “Way caddahay in UK, US, Canada ay cadaadis saarayeen markii sharcigaas halkan laga doodayay. Sababtoo ah kuma saabsana xaashida birta. Sidee buu guddoomiyuhu shakhsi ahaan uga faa’iidaystay go’yaashaas birta ah iyadoo dugsiyadii dawladda ee saqaf laga dhigay ay jiraan?”
Okello ayaa sheegay in Uganda ay la xiriiri doonto mas’uuliyiin ka tirsan dowladda Mareykanka, ayna ogaan doonto sida ay wasaaradda arrimaha dibadda Mareykanka u go’aansatay inay ansixiyaan cunaqabateynta.
