Critics have called it a stunt to invite sympathy. Yet Amuriat says campaigning without shoes is a protest and that those who do not get its symbolism are missing a point.
Uganda is due to hold a general election on January 14. Amuriat and another opposition candidate, Bobi Wine have had their rallies violently dispersed by security forces or been arrested.
In mid-November, scores of people were killed as security forces attempted to quell protests against the arrest and detention of Bobi Wine.
Police has accused the candidates of addressing huge gatherings in contravention of regulations on COVID-19 prevention.
Swollen feet
In an interview with one of the dailies in Uganda, Amuriat said his feet hurt a lot and has to pour cold water on them in between campaign stops for some relief.
Doctors have cautioned him on the potential danger of contracting tetanus from cuts to his feet.
Yet Amuriat remains adamant. He says by refusing to wear shoes, he’s standing in solidarity with people whose wealth and opportunities have been stolen by the country’s longtime ruler Yoweri Museveni.

Malis population consists of diverse Sub-Saharan ethnic groups, sharing similar historic, cultural, and religious traditions. Exceptions are the Tuaregs and Maurs, desert nomads, related to the North African Berbers. The Tuaregs traditionally have opposed the central government. Starting in June 1990, armed attacks in the north by Tuaregs seeking greater autonomy led to clashes with the military. In April 1992, the government and most opposing factions signed a pact to end the fighting and restore stability in the north. Its major aims are to allow greater autonomy to the north and increase government resource allocation to what has been a traditionally impoverished region. The peace agreement was celebrated in 1996 in Timbuktu during an official and highly publicized ceremony called Flamme de la Paix--peace flame.
Historically, good inter-ethnic relations throughout the rest of the country were facilitated by easy mobility on the Niger River and across the countrys vast savannahs. Each ethnic group was traditionally tied to a specific occupation, all working within close proximity. The Bambara, Malinke, and Dogon are farmers; the Fulani, Maur, and Tuareg are herders; the Soninkés or Saracolés are traders; while the Bozo are fishers. In recent years, this linkage has shifted as ethnic groups seek diverse, nontraditional sources of income.
Although each ethnic group speaks a separate language, nearly 80% of Malians communicate in Bambara, the common language of the marketplace. Malians enjoy a relative harmony rare in African states.
Malians express great pride in their ancestry. Mali is the cultural heir to the succession of ancient African empires--Ghana, Malinké, and Songhai--that occupied the West African savannah. These empires controlled Saharan trade and were in touch with Mediterranean and Middle Eastern centers of civilization.
The Ghana Empire, dominated by the Soninke or Saracolé people and centered in the area along the Malian-Mauritanian frontier, was a
Prosperity came in 1960 after the start of exploitation of bauxite deposits. Touré was reelected to a seven-year term in 1974 and again in 1981. He died after 26 years as president in March 1984. A week later, a military regime headed by Col. Lansana Conté took power.
In 1989, President Conté announced that Guinea would move to a multiparty democracy, and in 1991, voters approved a new constitution. In Dec. 1993 elections, the presidents Unity and Progress Party took almost 51% of the vote. In 2001, a government referendum was passed that eliminated presidential term limits, thus allowing Conté to run for a third term in 2003. Despite the trappings of multiparty rule, Conté has ruled the country with an iron fist.
In line with the Paris Agreement of reducing carbon emissions and also supporting the global efforts to raise ambitions through the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), are developing countries ready for the realisation of the Net-Zero transition? For the majority of developing countries, realising the Net-Zero carbon budget is going to be a tough process and not just an event. Although setting targets has never been a point of success globally, many countries have to be seen either talking about the targets or actually doing it anyhow, some with the aim of accessing international green funding. In this regard, everybody wants to be seen to be relevant and seemingly conforming. Being able to control greenhouse gas emissions and live low carbon lives would mean some countries will have to forgo certain necessities and make tough choices. Many countries would falter in this regard, as they have not been known for making tough decisions for the good of their people and economies, but only for making tough decisions for oppressing their people. Indeed, it would be significant for developing countries to be seen engaging their communities on anti-emission pathways in setting out carbon budgets, which would include evidence-based initiatives for accountability purposes, bottom-up approaches that are sufficiently engaging, tolerant and accommodating, or whole economy approaches, among others, would be most appropriate. All these are ingredient pathways towards the realisation of low-carbon economies or rather Net-Zero energy transitions. Deep public engagement is required for companies, businesses and communities to work strongly towards these resilient and mitigation efforts. Multi-stakeholder and sectoral approaches would be required to foreground the activities of the energy-power sector, buildings, industries, transport, agriculture and waste management, among others. These sectors are well known for accelerating carbon emissions and greenhouse gases that contribute to global warming. In order to manage these sectors, and make them sufficiently compliant, issues like economic impacts of the country, energy poverty and health issues like COVID-19 would have to be addressed for a smooth transition to take place. Many developing nations are of the view that they cannot realise the Net-Zero energy transition without funding from the International Climate Finance/Green Climate Fund. This notion would always incapacitate them as not being able to participate in climate action strategies with any foreign interventions. Obviously this takes out the overall steam and intrinsic motivation which locals might have in attempts to fight the impact of climate change. Of course, technical assistance to developing countries is required due to their lack of capacities to fight the impact of climate change, but that doesn’t stop them from making their own local arrangements or home-grown solutions towards addressing climate change. This is important in reducing the entrenched begging syndrome which has mostly left local communities

BY WINSTONE ANTONIO ZANU PF is now targeting young women in universities by capacitating them to embark on different mining and agricultural projects in a bid to lure them to vote for the ruling party in the 2023 elections. This was revealed on Thursday by the Zanu PF Harare women’s league interim provincial chairperson Betty Nhambu-Kaseke during the party’s women’s month commemorations in the capital. Senate President Mabel Chinomona was the guest of honour. “We have a target to achieve by 2023. As women in Zanu PF, we have embarked on massive mobilisation programmes which will accommodate every woman, especially youths in universities, business and cross-border traders,” Kaseke said. “We are targeting women in mining; we want them to own mines and succeed in agriculture. We are appealing to the Lands ministry to consider allocating a small portion (of land) so that it can be subdivided to urban women to use for farming purposes,” Kaseke said. “We want women in tourism to be afforded an opportunity to exhibit their products whenever there are tourism fairs in other countries,” she said.
