Disabled man sues UTODA
KAMPALA - The Uganda Human Rights Commission has fixed September 11 for the hearing of a case in which a disabled passenger, Fred Mugerwa, sued the Uganda Taxi Operators and Drivers’ Association (UTODA) over harassment. Mugerwa said a taxi driver, Hussein Kabuye and his conductor, Dominic Mukiibi, denied him the right to public transport by blocking him from boarding their taxi because of his disability.
