KAMPALA-UGANDA/NEWSDAY: The traders who were forced out of Mulungu beach market in April 2020 as a result of rising water levels on Lake Victoria- have mobilised into a better and more organised place nearby. Kampala Capital City Authority-KCCA and National Environment Management Authority-NEMA and Buganda Land Board, the landlord, closed the site citing health and environmental challenges.
Amid closed bars, our visit at Mulungu shows that perhaps it is the only bar in Uganda that operates openly but with strict adherence to Covid19 SOPs .
The site where Mulungu beach was located before traders were relocated in 2020 after claims the beach was flooding.
