In a bid to protect the environment, a group of students at Makerere University have advanced the idea of building houses using plastic bottles.

Plastic bottles are regarded as a waste material, but these students see them as raw material in the construction of buildings.

During the Entrepreneurship Expo 2019 in Freedom Square, organised by the College Business and Management Sciences (CoBAMS), the students exhibited their creativity through the display of various products and items.

Social media especially WhatsApp is the main disseminator of fake news in Uganda today, according to Carol Beyanga, the head Digital platforms at Nation Media Group.

While making a presentation today at Golden Tulip Hotel in Kampala, Beyanga said there are two kinds of fake news including disinformation and miss-information. She described disinformation as deliberate false news and miss-information as unintentional news which is false.

Beyanga was speaking at the opening ceremony of Uganda Media Week.

Vj Junior, the chairperson of the association, says that army raiding their shops was uncalled for.
