Residents of Central division Bushenyi Ishaka municipality are worried over lack of public toilets and latrines in their area.

The residents say that the available ones are in poor state in addition to being locked.

Elkangiro Asiimwe the chairperson Rotary Boda Boda stage told www.mknewslink.com that they have resorted to first buying food and other goods before they are allowed to use traders’ latrines.

Asiimwe revealed that they have a public toilet few meters from their stage but it has been closed for almost 6 years since its renovation in 2014.

Asiimwe cried to the municipal authorities to come to their rescue and work on the Public latrines issue so that they can be saved from inconveniences.

However, Stephen Karuti the Central division chairperson told www.mknewslink.com reporter that they are negotiating with the surrounding community to get someone to manage the toilets which he hopes will open soon.

Bushenyi town has only two public toilets, one behind Gift hotel 10-20 meters from Mbarara -Ishaka high way while another one is below the Bushenyi Central Market but was opened recently after many years of closure.
