Busia Municipal Council carried out a door-to-door operation against premises without latrines or proper garbage management, and closed houses belonging to three landlords in Kisenyi B Village after tenants were found putting human waste into drainage channels. Principal Health Inspector Moses Okurut and Mayor Sadiq Amin Agele said the exercise aims to force better sanitation and will continue, while an affected landlord blamed street vendors and street children for the dumping.
