Business Community Concerned Over Upcoming Ugandan Elections

There is much concern in the business community over the upcoming elections to be held in Uganda. Members of the Ugandan government have been assuring foreigners with business interests in Uganda that there will be safety for the upcoming 2011 elections. Members of the Ugandan business community have formed BACU, Business Against Crime Uganda. This community has been formed in order to "cooperate with and support the police to create a safer environment for business operations." While members of election committees have been assuring citizens that there will not be violence, they have also been advising business members not to support any political agendas.
