KCCA Seals Ntinda Buildings Over Illegal Wastewater 2nd June 2026 @KCCAUG Public Health teams sealed three commercial buildings along Ntinda–Kisaasi Road after investigations confirmed illegal discharge of wastewater into a stormwater drainage channel. All shops and businesses within the affected premises have been closed. Operations will only resume once property owners rectify their sewerage systems to meet public health and environmental standards. KCCA urges tenants and businesses to handle waste responsibly and reminds all stakeholders that discharging sewage into stormwater drains endangers public health, damages the environment, and weakens city drainage infrastructure. KCCA remains committed to enforcing sanitation and environmental regulations to safeguard Kampala as a healthy and livable city. #ForALivableCity

Mukulu Henry Mpiima We have ongoing massive evacuation of waste across the city under our @Weyonje campaign. We engage, sensitize and encouraging communities to utilize our trucks that traverse city communities at least twice a week and the regular concessionaire trucks and to embrace the Bring to Truck initiative not piling garbage on the streets. We appreciate partners who have joined hands with us to educate the public on waste segregation- you can join us too. Together we are building a city that is livable for all.

It’s on tomorrow Friday 29 May, 2026 ! The #KlaCyclingDay happening every last Friday of the month is here now, join us in advocating for safer roads, clean air, healthy people and a Livable city. All you need to do is get your bicycle 🚲, and cycle with us, starting 8:30am. #ForALivableCity

CLARIFICATION: A decision to retire the over 50-year-old chair was made to ensure that it is preserved and conserved in the exhibition space together with other items like the ceremonial robing and portraits of past leaders of the Authority. This forms part of KCCA’s broader effort to modernise offices while preserving institutional heritage.

Congratulations to the Lord Mayor and Lord Councillors. Together we shall build a livable City.

Following the heavy downpour experienced earlier today in the city, @KCCAUG noted that water levels in most affected areas dispersed within a short time as drainage systems normalized. Our teams rose to the occasion to clear blocked channels and monitor the situation for swift response. We have also noted the circulation of some AI-generated and misleading images falsely portraying the situation. We urge the public to always verify information through our official platforms and avoid spreading unverified content. Additionally, we call upon all landlords and business owners to exercise responsible waste management measures and stop indiscriminate littering and dumping of waste which ends up in drainage channels, significantly contributing to blockage and flooding during such heavy rains. Motorists and pedestrians are advised to always exercise caution in flood-prone areas during periods of rainfall. KCCA remains committed to improving storm water management in the City #ForALivableCity.

Statement on Status of Unauthorized Demolition along Sebana Road On 7th March 2026, unauthorized demolition of structures occurred at Nakivubo Place along Sebana Road. Following this incident, the Inter-Agency Technical Committee on the redevelopment of Nakivubo Channel was tasked to conduct a site visit, assess the remaining structures, and advise the Executive Director on their management. @KCCAUG wishes to inform traders and the general public that, based on technical assessments by the Committee overseeing the Nakivubo Drainage Channel project, the remaining structures at St. Balikuddembe Market, as well as another structure along the Channel that had been partially demolished last week by unauthorized individuals, were found to be destabilized and unsafe. The Committee recommended their controlled removal to protect traders, customers, and the surrounding community. Acting on this recommendation and following an application for demolition, KCCA issued a Conditional Demolition Permit for the affected structures. To safeguard lives and property, the area will remain fully cordoned off while works are carried out. On 14th March 2026, @KCCAED — @Buzeki_Sharifah convened a stakeholder meeting with market leaders and the surrounding community at Nakivubo Settlement Primary School. During the meeting, she presented the technical report, addressed community concerns, and clarified that @KCCAUG has no immediate plans to remove St. Balikuddembe Market. Any future developments will be communicated through official channels. @KCCAUG reassures traders and city residents that this action is purely a safety measure. No new commercial structures will be erected at the site. Instead, a stormwater retention facility will be constructed to improve drainage from the market into Nakivubo Channel and sustainably manage flash floods in the surrounding area. Importantly, the land remains a channel reserve, and the boundaries of St. Balikuddembe Market are clearly demarcated. The Authority remains committed to protecting traders and ensuring that all city markets are safe, well-managed, and properly organized, in line with our vision #ForALivableCity.
