The Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA) will no longer approve plans of any investor intending to set up a fuel station in the city. “We shall not approve plans to put up fuel stations in the city,” the KCCA executive director Jennifer Musisi warned recently.

Addressing Asian investors in the city, she said the investment is a threat to lives of people. She said the authority will not hesitate to demolish any fuel station, which comes up without approval from the physical planning committee.
