CBS closure hurting Buganda's finances

'The closure of the Buganda Government radio station, the Central Broadcasting Service (CBS FM) greatly affected the financial wellbeing of the Buganda kingdom' the Buganda kingdom Information Minister, Charles Peter Mayiga said during a special sitting of the kingdom's National Assembly (Lukiiko) on July 20, 2010 at Bulange-Mengo. "CBS closure brought big set backs in terms of finance because now it is very difficult to mobilize people to participate indifferent financial activities like "Ekitobeero". The passing on of information to the people was also affected, announcements and adverts which fetched the kingdom with high finances are no more," Mayiga noted. Read more...
