Equity needed in Nile River accords

Editor, It is my belief that the waters of the River Nile should be shared fairly by all the peoples of the Nile river valley. That is why I am happy that our Environment Minister, Stanislas Kamanzi, has gone to Uganda to join other top officials from seven of the nine Nile Basin Initiative (NBI) member countries to move forward with the signing of a pact of equitable sharing of the River Nile water, and in the process disregard an Egypt-Sudan boycott.
