    Water Supply Interruptions in Bugolobi Service Area

    The management of National Water and Sewerage Corporation (NWSC) sincerely apologises to its customers that water supply to parts of Bugolobi, Lugogo By-pass, Baskerville Road, parts of Mackenzie Vale and the surrounding areas has been interrupted.

    This follows damage to a high-level water main caused by ongoing construction works opposite the Isuzu Service Centre along Old Portbell Road.

    Our teams are already on site assessing the situation and carrying out the necessary repairs.

    What we are doing to support you.
    We have extended the Katosi system to reinforce the 6-inch line in Bugolobi, helping maintain supply to Kiswa Health Centre and parts of Mbuya.

    We have also extended the Naguru sub-system to support the Lugogo By-pass service area.

    Dewatering is currently underway so that repairs to the damaged pipe section can proceed safely.

    Expected restoration time: within 8 hours.

    Please use any water you have available as carefully as possible, prioritising essential needs.

    We truly appreciate your patience as we work to restore normal supply.

    Thank you for your understanding.

    Photos: Throne’s Three- year anniversary celebration ends on a high note

    All roads led to Bandali Rise on Friday night as Thrones Bar, Restaurant and Lounge celebrated its third-year anniversary in the bar business.

    Sponsored by Johnnie Walker, the night saw Kenyan Sauti Sol singer Bien, Sol Generation’s Nviiri The Storyteller and Bensoul take to the stage to serenade revelers.

    The gentlemen staged a soulful performance that got revelers at the Bugolobi based bar singing in unison. However it was Bien’s performance of “Short and Sweet” and “Suzana” that drove the crowd wild.

    Speaking at the event, Thrones Manager Nicholas Nuwagaba was ecstatic about the milestone that the bar has reached since its inception.

    “I cannot tell you all how proud we are as Thrones for this milestone that we have managed to achieve. Our baby, Thrones that started with simple steps has now fully grown into one of the biggest hangout spots in the country. I want to thank our customers who have supported us throughout the years and of course our partners Johnnie Walker who have worked with us on various partnerships, you guys have kept us walking,” he said.

    Johnnie Walker who were sponsors of the night were also very vividly present, from the cocktail servings and by the bottle; the iconic brand was celebration companion. While giving her remarks about the event Johnnie Walker Brand Manager Christine Kyokunda explained that the bar’s success and steady progress is the reason why the brand is so proud to be in a partnership with Thrones. “Johnnie Walker is a brand that is all about progress. I am more than happy that we are here today to celebrate the big step and milestone that our partners Thrones have achieved because it is evident how prosperous the three years have been. Of course this would not be possible without the customers and our consumers who are the backbone of it all. All I can say is keep walking Thrones as we step into the future,” she said.

    Johnnie Walker’s partnership with Thrones on the third year anniversary celebrations did not come as a surprise as the brand has been in partnership with the outlet for quite some time.

    Thrones Lounge and Restaurant started operations in 2019 and has grown to become one of Kampala’s highly rated hangout spots.
