GOVERNMENT STARTS CONSTRUCTION OF THE BKK FERRIES IN BUYENDE DISTRICT.

 

During the ground-breaking ceremony at Bukungu Landing Site, State Minister for Transport Fred Byamukama said the ferries are meant to support the economic activities in the areas after their completion in 2023.

The two ferries under construction (Bukungu-Kagwara-Kaberamaido, BBK) will cost Shs. 41bn Ugandan Shillings and will facilitate trade and development of districts within their destination routes by encouraging both local and foreign investors.

This will ensure affordable transport for residents within three districts of Buyende, Kaberamaido and Serere where transport costs have been high making movement of people with their goods inevitable.

Each ferry will consist of three decks with a minimum capacity of 310 passengers, 14 small cars and 50-tonne trucks in a single route, sheltered sitting areas, rest rooms, washrooms, adequate life jackets and a rescue boat.

Ferries are part of the pledges made by President Museveni since 2000 and have steadily taken shape.

THE CURRENT STAGGERING STATE OF NUP IS SO WORRYING DUE TO CONTINUOUS FAILURE

    The National Unity Platform party was built on social media falsehoods, blackmail and public threats in 2019 when the then Kyadondo East MP Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine declared his interests in contesting for the highest office in Uganda against President Museveni. Social media was stormed with falsehoods against Government officials, institutions, service delivery and projects that have at several occasions been watered down by unpatriotic citizens with interests of leading the country. As a result, several bloggers both Ugandan based and the diaspora were hired to ensure the blackmail campaign is sold to the Ugandan community on media and continuous call for sanctions and interference in the politics of Uganda by the international community. The continuous call for sympathy from the international community based on falsehoods has not yielded any results due to their ability to establish a Uganda different from what the NUP Principal and propagandists have s...

BOBI WINE BACK TO AMSTERDAM TO MEET HIS LGBT ASSOCIATES 

Many people wonder why “Bobi Wine” has profound love for Amsterdam and not any other city in the world. There are two spectacular things about Amsterdam that will always attract Bobi Wine to this City. Just like they say, “Old habits die Hard”.  The Ghetto President still enjoys smoking his weed and he considers Amsterdam being one of the cities in the world where cannabis is smoked freely in their popular cannabis coffee shops like Amnesia, Smokey, La Tertulia and Bobi Wine’s favorite Coffee shop Sloterdijk. He smokes and meets his associate, Erik Vander Zanden a Dutch who mobilizes Ugandans that live in Amsterdam to support Bobi wine and the NUP struggle from Sloterdijk. It is not surprising that one of the upcoming meetings in Amsterdam around 2nd July 2022 has been sponsored by the famous cannabis Coffee shop Sloterdijk.  As it is said, “There is no Free Lunch” Bobi Wine is psychologically held captive by his Netherlands supporters who are constantly pressuriz...
