The much-anticipated construction of a multibillion national military museum will commence before the end of the current fiscal year, Uganda People’s Defense Forces (UPDF) have revealed.
On December 29, 2020, armed forces Commander-in-Chief, President Museveni, launched the project near the River Katonga Bridge on the Kampala-Masaka Highway in Mpigi District.
“We were allocated some funds and we shall be commencing construction very soon,” defense public information Brig Felix Kulayigye told Monitor on Friday.
According to him, the delaying factor is now the compensation process for the extra land (12 acres) they still need for the project.
“The land has occupants and they have to leave after a thorough compensation process which is ongoing. So, immediately after that, we shall commence actual construction works,” Brig Kulayigye explained.
