State Minister for Housing, Persis Namuganza, has voiced deep concern over the state of Hoima City’s infrastructure. Since being granted City Status, Hoima has been grappling with disorganized streets and condemned structures, tarnishing its potential as a thriving urban center.
Despite its elevation to city status, Hoima has faltered in its infrastructural transformation, leaving residents and officials alike disillusioned. Minister Namuganza emphasized the urgency for property owners to collaborate either with the government or private developers to initiate a comprehensive revitalization of the city’s aesthetics and functionality.
“Hoima’s current state is unacceptable for a city of its stature,” Minister Namuganza asserted. “It’s imperative that we take immediate action to rectify these issues and restore the dignity of our urban landscape.”
The call to action comes amidst growing concerns from residents who have long lamented the dilapidated state of infrastructure in Hoima. Disorganized streets and condemned structures not only mar the city’s visual appeal but also pose safety hazards and hinder economic development.
“We cannot afford to continue neglecting the urgent need for infrastructural upgrades,” remarked one concerned resident. “It’s high time both property owners and authorities come together to prioritize the revitalization of our city.”
While the transition from municipality to city status was meant to usher in a new era of growth and development, the reality on the ground tells a different story. Minister Namuganza’s plea serves as a wake-up call for all stakeholders to redouble their efforts in turning around the fortunes of Hoima City.
As discussions and deliberations ensue on the best course of action, residents remain hopeful that tangible steps will be taken to address the longstanding infrastructural challenges plaguing their city. The fate of Hoima’s urban landscape hangs in the balance as stakeholders weigh the importance of swift action in reclaiming the city’s vibrancy and allure.
