A very funny Ugandan man has pulled a great stunt at Kotido central police station Uganda, as he filed a complaint against the WildLife Authority, demanding for compensation for damages caused by rats.
The man identified as Peter Lojok Longolangiro, a businessman, brought along with him five rats he accused of eating his money where he kept them for safety.

Longolangiro demanded that the WildLife Authority should compensate him for letting one of the species of what they should protect destroy his valuables.
After hearing his complains, police referred him to the resident state attorney for expert advice on the case. The District Police Commander at Kotido Alphonse Ojangole, told UWA he had never come across such a case in his 12- years of service.
The resident state Attorney in Kotido, Anthony Obwonyo Jabwor, said the case lacks merit, saying it should only teach people, especially the business community to bank their money.
Longolangiro insisted that UWA should pay for the damage caused by the wild rats. The father of ten children said it’s the tenth time wild animals have destroyed his property without any compensation.
He noted that last year, he lost all his crops to elephants and other wildlife and nothing was done by UWA. Walter Odokorach, a Community warden in Kidepo wildlife reserve, said it’s unfortunate that Longolangiro has lost his savings to the rats.

He however noted that UWA can’t be liable for such actions especially by rats in the house. Two banks namely Centenary Rural Development bank and Stanbic bank operate in Kotido, where he could have easily saved his money.
