Mukono, Uganda – What was meant to be a government-upgraded road has instead become a flooded, pothole-ridden nightmare for residents, traders, and motorists along the Sebwato Road stretch of the Kampala-Jinja Highway in Mukono District.
Kapchorwa District, Uganda – A horrific accident occurred today at around 12:40 pm along the Kapchorwa-Mbale highway near Kapwachiti, claiming the lives of nine people and leaving three others injured. Preliminary reports indicate that the fatal crash was caused by brake failure, leading to the vehicle losing control on a slope and overturning.
According to eyewitnesses and police reports, the driver was transporting both cattle and passengers on the same truck—a dangerous and illegal practice. The vehicle, which was carrying people on top of the cargo, suffered a mechanical failure as it descended a slope. The driver reportedly lost control due to brake failure, causing the truck to overturn.
