Abstract
Fourteen years ago, Uganda joined other sub-Saharan African Countries with new discoveries
of oil; and just as the case always is, this news comes with high prospects for development
and economic transformation. These ambitious projections are always based on the success
stories of oil money in other countries without prr:judice to the fear of the infamous oil curse
that results from poor exploitation of oil revenues. With these aspirations at hand, Uganda has
clearly stated in its national polices and development plans the fact that the country's
development in the next 30 years shall be largely dependent on exploitation of its natural
resources- such as oil.
