Let us do this. How about you identify one DMC taxi and use it on a daily basis. You share with us daily reports on your experience, you can choose to be the passenger or driver.
The Minister should reconsider the Monday, 24 August deadline and give taxi operators sufficient notice. Road safety is non-negotiable, but enforcement must also be fair, predictable and administratively reasonable.
If government has allowed these taxis to operate for years, it cannot reasonably expect every operator to repair, replace or withdraw a vehicle within a few days. A rushed deadline risks disrupting transport for thousands of commuters, particularly along the busy Wakiso, Mukono and Entebbe corridors.
The Minister should therefore extend and revise the deadline, publish the inspection criteria clearly, give operators a reasonable period to rectify defects, and establish a transparent re-inspection process. At the same time, government should mobilise alternative public transport so that enforcement does not leave passengers stranded.
Safety must come firstโbut good governance requires that enforcement is preceded by adequate notice, clear standards and a realistic transition period.
The Minister should not abandon the crackdown; he should get the implementation right.
@Senor_Mitch@Senor_Mitch is right. Fire brigade trucks have equipment to extricate trapped passengers. But alas, our local governments are no vibes and yet it is their duty to provide emergency services
@MarthaKayug The problem starts from the contracts themselves. A telecom never guarantees service uptime in its contracts with retail customers. In accepting terms and conditions, you basically accept they have not guaranteed service uptime. They only do this for corporate customers.
Mortgage registration is entirely controlled by Ministry of Lands. Some MZOs have efficient Registrars while some dont. Other factors such as incomplete previous transactions in the system delay mortgage registration. Banks have no control over how quickly a Registrar of Titles
@centenary bank , this is absolutely frustrating and unacceptable!
How can a customer apply for a loan specifically to clear urgent goods, offer property as security, and then you take ages just to register a mortgage?
What makes it worse is that instead of having an efficient working relationship with the Ministry of Lands, everything seems to move through brokers and endless processes. Meanwhile, the customer is forced to look for expensive private moneylenders simply because the bank cannot process the security fast enough.
What is the purpose of applying for a bank loan if the customer must first borrow elsewhere while waiting for the bank?
This kind of delay can destroy businesses. Shameful and deeply disappointing!

Events have happened in this city and often times we credit the artist for a welldone concert. Today i want to celebrate FENON for holding it down, creating different experiences for different artists and implementing the artists vision over and above. FENON has done small productions in bars, Churches, Large outdoor events, Weddings and coporate shows all of which he executes like its his first time. Each show takes a chain of meetings and sleepless nights av witnessed.
If no one has celebrated you steve jean and your team am here to say thank u for the work done for the music industry. From Ray G to now King Saha. FENON, Have your flowers. Big love FENON.
Why don't you guys buy generators? It's not like they will be running all the time. So if the issue takes two weeks to be resolved? Will all those residents be left without water. Get serious btw

@assempebwa why do road contractors just put humps everywhere? Many of them are even large that cars with low ground clearence cannot pass over them. Worse still, no warnings that there are humps ahead.
14 killed on the spot in head-on crash between taxi and sand truck on Masaka highway
According to police, the truck driver, who was transporting sand, attempted to avoid road humps installed on his lane due to ongoing road construction.
In the process, he allegedly veered into the opposite lane and collided with the taxi, which was travelling on its correct side of the road.
The impact caused the two vehicles to lock together, with the heavily loaded truck pushing the taxi backwards for about 30 metres from the point of collision.

@NellyKumba@CentenaryBank They do support. Please submit a written request to the legal department if the branch did not support you. It will verify the letters of administration and if authentic, the person will be granted access to the account.
@NellyKumba@CentenaryBank Hello. The bank owes a duty of confidentiality and can only disclose after verifying the authenticity of the letters of administration with respective court that issued them.
When your German car is working flawless, you will abuse all other car manufacturers left right and centre.
Once it gets a "simple issue" e.g. Brake system that needs UGX5M to fix and you remember, its like max 1M for other cars is when you start thinking twice ๐๐
Looking at all these terrible accidents you sit and wonder what exactly traffic safety officials are doing or what their role is!!! Trucks and buses using highways without rear lights, DMC taxis and trucks with barely any wheel alignment.
@PoliceUg@MoWT_Uganda we can do better!!
@leonkal He who alleges must prove. If you claim unauthorised use, how was one able to input all the correct card details. The presumption is that the card holder transacted or authorised someone to transact.
