The curfew restrictions imposed on the boda boda sector will come to an end today at 6:00pm.
President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni made the pronouncement while presiding over the Uganda People’s Defense Forces Tarehe Sita celebrations yesterday at Malukhu grounds in Mbale City.
In his address on December 31, 2021 President Museveni reopened the economy from a two-year lockdown but boda bodas remained restricted by a dusk to dawn curfew.
Speaking during the tarehe sita celebrations Museveni said that he is aware that many boda boda riders are criminals, but said they can now operate unrestricted.
Museveni said he will handle the criminals using other measures like introducing digital monitors to track motorcycles.
