Toyota Kaguta a young brother to President Museveni put the blame of continuous flooding in the Kampala on National Environment Management Authority (NEMA) and KCCA.

Toyota says that the main cause of the flooding is the licensing of buildings in wetlands, which he greatly says it’s the negligence caused by NEMA and KCCA but not the government.

 “It is not true that the NRM government is responsible for the floods in Kampala. The real culprits are KCCA, which approves building plans in wetlands, and NEMA, which issues licenses for construction in areas meant for water drainage,” he stated.

 “NEMA demolishes the properties of poor people while leaving those belonging to the so-called big people. When you look at buildings like Forest Mall, you feel ashamed,” he added.

Kaguta urged the government to take serious measures of removing structures like Forest Mall among others claiming they were build in drainage areas.

 “I appeal to Ugandans to spearhead the demolition of such buildings if the government agencies responsible for approving construction in wetlands do not act. I don’t like things that make the government look bad in the eyes of the people,” he emphasized.

The comments come on the backdrop of a heavy downpour on Wednesday morning that left a trail of destruction in Kampala.
