NATIONAL: Mission Aviation Fellowship is on the spotlight for defying president Yoweri Kaguta’s directive of handing over Kanjjansi Airfield to Government of Uganda.
On top of defying the presidential directive, MAF management has continued mistreating other users of this air field to an extent of over-charging them.
What you need to know:
In February 2023, the President of the republic of Uganda, HE Yoweri Kaguta Museveni wrote to the minister of works and transport, Hon. Gen Katumba Wamala requesting MIF to hand over the air field to the Government of Uganda.
The letter from the president clearly showed that MAF was using the Kajjansi air field for more than 25 years on contract but he was not ready to renew their contract which is expired.
