Unconfirmed reports that have reached Uganda Correspondent in the last few minutes suggest that traders in the capital city Kampala have resolved to join the nationwide protests against high fuel and food prices by closing all their shops.
“…In a meeting today Kampala City Traders Association [KACITA] has resolved to close all shops in Kampala until taxes on fuel are reduced. Let’s see how Museveni will jail all of them like he did to Besigye and Mao”, read the message.
The message was posted on the ‘Activist for Change’ online forum on facebook by a group calling itself “Liberate Uganda”. END. Please login to www.ugandacorrespondent.com every Monday to read our top stories and anytime mid-week for our news updates.
