Uganda is not under any Attack Whatsoever
A few days ago, the safe and secured Embassies of the United States of America and the High Commission of the United Kingdom in Uganda issued travel advisories discouraging travel to Uganda on the grounds that Uganda is under some security threat.
After consultations with our competent security institutions, we wish to categorically refute this negative travel advisory. Uganda continues to enjoy peace and tranquility from border to border. Kampala, the capital, is one of the safest cities in the whole wide world. Tourists visiting Uganda are safe, secure and enjoying their welcome stay in the Pearl of Africa, a destination voted the best country to visit in the world in 2012. Our Police which includes the Tourism Police is available to protect tourists and our globally cherished tourism spots. Our national game parks, game reserves, heritage and historical sites and all other attractions are safe to visit. Uganda continues to be the premier pristine tourist destination in Africa.
Uganda Tourism Board therefore advises negative foreign travel and security advisors to desist from wrongly portraying Uganda as under any security and health threats.
