Nabweru Town Council has embarked on its development projects through constructing roads and water trenches as a measure to minimize the problem of floods in the area of Kazo.

Kazo, located in Nabweru Division, Nansana Municipality, Wakiso District, has witnessed heavy rains that caused floods from the start of September. Rains put the lives of some of Nabweru residents at stake as they leave them homeless and desperate.

The zone includes Kazo Ward, Kazo West, Kazo South and Kazo Muganzirwazza. However, Kazo South and Kafunda trading centre are the most affected areas.

Residents of Bwaise-Bokasa zone in Nabweru, a Kampala suburb are still counting losses following heavy rains on Tuesday morning.

Barely a month since the rainy season started, some communities in flood prone areas in Bokasa along the northern bypass have started experiencing the impact of floods. The heavy downpour that lasted several hours left the area flooded, roads cut off and drainage systems blocked. As a result, work was nearly paralysed.
