The national chairperson of UTODA, Hajji Moses Katongole has assured drivers in Kampala that their association is still in control of the transport affairs in both old and new taxi parks.
Katongole has also denied media reports that KCCA has taken over control of the daily management of public transport in Kampala.
Katongole further assured drivers that KCCA will have no choice but to renew the contract of UTODA when it expires on October 30th 2014.
Katongole told the drivers in Kampala today that KCCA under the laws don’t have powers to collect revenue direct from taxi parks.
Katongole told drivers that the president and the government in general is backing UTODA to remain in the transport command in Uganda. Recently many drivers in Kampala protested against what they called mistreatment by UTODA.
