After seven days of tough negotiations between Uganda Revenue Authority (URA) and The Observer Media Limited ( OML), the former has withdrawn the seals and now the newspaper premises at Togore crescent, Kamwokya are open.
The two parties have also made some progress on the discrepancies, and established that the Shs 2.9 billion figure did not tally with what is owed.
As a consequence the two parties, have reconciled their figures and agreed on better payment plans, which would be followed by OML. The management of OML would like to thank its esteemed readers and advertisers for their unwavering support, trust and understanding.
The Observer pledges to its readers to remain the independent media house that it is and the paper that will stick to its values of fairness and balance.
