The Daily Monitor reports that the Platform for Informal Workers delivered a petition signed by over 300 traders to State House Entebbe and the Office of the Prime Minister, asking for financial relief for traders hurt by the trade order. At a press conference in Kampala, the platform's chairperson said the traders wanted dialogue with the government. A Kampala traders' leader said evicted vendors had not received the alternative spaces the government promised.
