In the statement released today by the director of communication and public affairs at parliament, Chris Obore, the House and roads around it will be out of bounds to public from March 9 to 11 this month to allow the shooting to go on.
"During this period, there will be increased movement of people along the roads near parliament, presence of actors in military fatigue and equipment, simulated gun sounds will be heard as the actors and film crew shoot the film," Obore said.
He added that the production company has sought relevant permission from the Uganda police and the Kampala Capital City Authority. The development is most likely not to affect plenary sittings since currently the House is in recess.
