NEMA demolishes controversial Lake Vic

________________ The National Environment Management Authority (NEMA) has demolished a controversial perimeter wall extending into Lake Victoria at Ddungu Resort Beach in Munyonyo, marking a major step in the government's ongoing campaign to restore wetlands and protect the country's water bodies. The demolition follows months of public criticism and a series of investigations by New Vision that highlighted alleged environmental degradation along the shores of Lake Victoria, where several developers were accused of encroaching on protected wetlands. Speaking at the site on Friday, NEMA senior public relations officer William Lubuulwa said the exercise forms part of the authority's nationwide environmental restoration campaign. "This is a continuous restoration exercise, but today we have come to Munyonyo in Makindye division to remove this perimeter wall, which has caused a lot of concern among the public," he said.
