Mengo Market came alive as Lord Mayor aspirant Beatrice Mao met traders, vendors, and residents in one of Kampala’s oldest and most spirited marketplaces. The visit highlighted the resilience of Kampala’s people — those who keep the city running every day through honest work and determination.
Discussions centered on cleanliness, water access, and waste management, with Beatrice emphasizing the need for structured market sanitation systems and constant engagement between traders and the city authority.
