They were all meant to accommodate at least ten personnel.<\/p>\n<p>The Bukaya West LC1 chairman, Mr Jimmy Okee, said the uniports haven\u2019t been used for their intended purpose, with all of them currently being used as lodges for sex, or targeted by vandals for scrap to be sold to steel factories.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe structures have become a shelter for criminals in the area, and lodging for having sex since they are not locked,\u201d Mr Okee said in an interview on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Okee added that last year, during a security meeting, officers at Njeru Police Station were reportedly reminded about the abandoned uniports, which he says are escalating insecurity in the area, but are yet to come up with a solution.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are experiencing challenges with these uniports that remain unutilised and attracting all sorts of criminal activities,\u201d Mr Okee further explained.<\/p>\n<p>The Ssezibwa Region Police Spokesperson, Ms Hellen Butoto, said the uniports were put in place for a Police Post, but there is currently a shortage of personnel.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPolice Posts have been scrapped countrywide, but for the case of Bukaya, I am going to get more information about these newly constructed uniports that have been put in place and the residents will be informed,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Ernest Ssenyonjo, the Bukaya East LC1 chairman says that there is no pit latrine, water and electricity installed in the place, which has partly repulsed officers from occupying the uniports despite accommodation challenges in some barracks.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Charles Tooko, a resident of Bukaya West Village, says he fears the uniports will soon be vandalised by marauding scrap dealers, some of whom have started sleeping in them at night.<\/p>\n<p>Mr James Okiria, a boda boda rider in Bukaya East, says the uniports were bought using taxpayers\u2019 money and suggested that they be relocated to a place where they can be of use rather than being left to waste in the bush.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/uganda\">Uganda<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Uganda.
