Uganda extends refugees repatriation deadline

Rwandan refugees living in Uganda will be given more time to return home, Tarsis Kabwegyere, Uganda’s Minister for Relief, Disaster Preparedness and Refugees, said in an interview yesterday. Several of these refugees based in Uganda whose total number is estimated at 20,000 have been returning home over the last two months but at a slow pace.
