DP demands more funding for KCCA
The opposition Democratic Party (DP) has called on the government to increase the Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA) budget from Shs500 billion to Shs2 trillion to facilitate the authority’s smooth operation.

This follows the recent appointments of KCCA’s new Executive Director, Hajjat Sharifah Buzeki, and her Deputy, Benon Kigenyi, by President Yoweri Museveni. Kirya argues that KCCA’s primary problem is not leadership changes but rather inadequate funding, […] The post DP demands more funding for KCCA first appeared on 93.3 KFM.
