Relations between Uganda and the Democratic Republic of Congo appear to have hit another all-time low as President Yoweri Museveni singled out his western neighbour for “preserving” the rebel Allied Democratic Forces (ADF).

President Museveni told Parliament on Wednesday how DRC and the United Nations were responsible for the survival of the ADF, a rebel outfit linked to Islamic extremists that terrorised parts of western Uganda through the late 1990s and early 2000s.
