The Kampala Minister Betty Kamya has promised to evict taxi drivers from the streets just like she did with the vendors.
\nThis follows the cry made by the USAFI traders to her during her visit to the market earlier today.
\nTraders in unison said that the reason the market is not thriving in terms of business is because taxi drivers no longer in the taxi park but not streets trying to have an easy way to passengers since the latter finds it difficult to move further to the park.
\nKamya however promised to send street drivers to the parks just like\u00a0she is sending street vendors to the markets.
\nThe minister said that the move to evict vendors from the streets was\u00a0not as aggressive as it was interpreted by those affected but it was\u00a0aimed at improving the status of the capital city.
\nShe added that the city had been messed up and as long as she was\u00a0appointed the Minister by the President, she will ensure that the city\u00a0is brought back to order.
\nKamya added that street vendors should comply with the Trade Act by\u00a0filling up spaces in the markets especially USAFI which she said has a\u00a0lot of space and they need to be occupied.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
