The Special Forces Command (SFC) has spoken out on an accident that left three people injured along the Northern bypass in Kampala on Monday, September 12.
In a video shared online after the accident, a woman was recorded claiming that it was the vehicle with President Yoweri Kaguta Tibuhaburwa Museveni’s mobile toilet that hit the bodaboda carrying two passengers.
