Boda boda riders to demonstrate at Entebbe airport

Groups of motor cycle (boda boda) riders and operators have vowed to stage a violent demonstration at Entebbe International Airport because the government has banned them from accessing their airport.

The government banned them on Tuesday, a decision that left many boda boda riders disappointed. Fred Kaggwa, a boda boda operator in Entebbe told our informer that a demonstration is likely to erupt at Entebbe Airport anytime if the ban is not reversed.

The ban was instituted by joint security committees at Entebbe international Airport with effect from Wednesday this week in a bid to ensure security.

Moses Kafeero, the Entebbe Airport police commandant confirms that the boda boda riders have been stopped from accessing the airport.

The ban followed security reports that the notorious Al Shabaab fighters in Somalia were plotting to bomb Uganda over its involvement in the Somali insurgence.
