NGOs zimeenda kortini kupinga ujenzi wa pipeline ya EACOP

Uganda-Tanzania pipeline runs into legal challenges​

Tuesday November 24 2020​

Four NGOs claim that the project is yet to conduct an environmental and social impact assessment.

IN SUMMARY​

• The NGOs are now seeking a permanent injunction against Uganda, Tanzania and the EAC, whom they have sued, from constructing the pipeline through protected areas, among other orders.
• The pipeline will transport crude oil from Hoima district in Uganda to Chongoleani in Tanga, Tanzania.

Four non-governmental organisations have moved to the East African Court of Justice to block the construction of the East African Crude Oil Pipeline (EACOP) by Uganda and Tanzania.

The four — the Centre for Food and Adequate Living Rights Ltd and the Africa Institute for Energy Governance both based in Kampala; the Nairobi-based Natural Justice-Kenya and the Center for Strategic Litigation Ltd based in Zanzibar — want the construction of the pipeline stopped until the matter is heard and determined.

In the case filed on November 6 through the Kampala based M/S Semuyaba, Iga & Company Advocates together with Dalumba Advocates, the applicants are seeking orders against both Uganda and Tanzania ensures that, “prior to any similar project, the following are conducted; climate change impact assessment; Human rights impact assessment; and meaningful, effective and transparent public consultations ensuring robust community and broad public participation.”

The four NGOs claim that the EACOP project, announced a month ago by Uganda’s President’s Yoweri Museveni and his Tanzania’s counterpart John Magufuli is yet to conduct an environmental and social impact assessment as required by both the EAC Treaty and other international laws.

Protected areas​

They claim it contravenes the EAC Treaty and protocols that determine the undertaking of such a project.

The pipeline will transport crude oil from Hoima district in Uganda to Chongoleani in Tanga, Tanzania.

“As a requirement by national as well as the EAC law, the project developer for the EACOP project in Uganda must be issued with a certificate of Approval of Environment and Social impact Assessment approved by the government of Uganda’s National Environmental Management Authority but the same was not issued prior to the signing of the agreements by both Uganda and Tanzania,” reads the application. The matter is yet to be assigned judges

naona kuna NGO toka Nairobi! Hii NGO haijaona kinachofanywa Lamu? Hiyo the Center for Strategic Litigation Ltd toka Zanzibar lazma JPM a-deal nao!

 

[Geza Ulole]

Naomba mahakama izuie kabisa huo mradi kujengwa.

sababu Kenya imekosa mradi huu sio? Hii sio era ya kikwete kuacha kujenga Serengeti Highway kwa sababu ya kelele za NGOs!

 

[eliakeem]

Katika miradi ambayo haina risk kubwa kwa mazingira, pipeline ni moja wapo.

 

[Mkikuyu- Akili timamu]

Eti Mazingira? Hizo NGO zinamjua Jiwe kweli ama zinamskianga tuu?

Jaribuni kugusa NGO yoyote muone Wazungu wakifungia mifereji wa misaada mnayopokea.

Wewe ubongo wako umepasuka mahali. Pipeline ya mafuta is the project that poses maximum risk to the environment. Kuna pipeline iliyopasuka huko gulf of Mexico chini ya maji na ikacause a very serious pollution. Samaki walikufa na mafuta yakatapakaa kilomita nyingi. Hata pipeline huwa inapasuka ardhini na kucause land pollution kubwa sana. Wewe utakuwa unakariri mashairi ya CCM tu lakini kila mtu mwenye akili timamu anafahamu kuwa pipeline huwa ina risk kubwa ya kucause pollution.

The case has been filed in an East African court of justice kwa hivyo Jiwe na hasira zake na udikteta wake hana effect yoyote kwa hii kesi.

Umesikia Mkikuyu- Akili timamu ?

Hehe Ngamani. NGO ya Nairobi pia iko pale ndani. Mradi wenyewe ulikuwa uanze 2017 lakini sasa mwaka wa 2020 unaisha na bado haujaanza. Kila siku yunapewa hadithi za abunuasi tu.

Hapo hamna ulichoongea zaidi ya mihemko. Hizo pipeline zinapasuka mara ngapi kwa mwezi? Maana itakuwa risk kubwa kama frequency ya kupasuka itakuwa sawa na ile ya migomo ya watumishi wa afya wa Kenya.
