Over 5,000 farmers from Olok sub county in Pallisa district have protested a decision by district authorities and the ministry of agriculture to give away over 54,000 acres of the Apapa wetland to the Korean Rural Corporation to grow rice. The angry farmers say the move is an over plan to grab their land, on which they grow maize, rice, and millet used for domestic consumption and sale. #NTVNews Subscribe to Our Channel For more news visit http://www.ntv.co.ug Follow us on Twitter http://www.twitter.com/ntvuganda Like our Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/NTVUganda
