ATM room turned shelter
The room housing an ATM was turned into a shelter last Sunday after a heavy storm dispersed the bank’s customers, writes Robert Wabomba.
The incident occurred at a Nile Bank cash machine on Luwum Street. The afternoon storm dispersed the Bank’s customers who had lined up to make transanctions. The customers first abandoned the queue and took shelter on the verandah but rushed into the room when the rain turned stormy. The small room was packed to full capacity.

This response threw other passengers into bouts of laughter.

When fellow motorists saw her run towards the nearby shops, they lost their temper and began hooting. However, when she reappeared she amused people by her response.
“Did you expect me to susu (urinate) inside my car? There is nothing wrong I have done,†she said before driving away.
