A group of people crossing over from Uganda to Rwanda celebrated President Museveni as they were allowed to cross the Katuna boarder for the first time in 3 years.

As promised earlier on, the Rwanda government has gone ahead to open the Katuna post boarder today the 31st of January, Jean Marie Murwanashyaka becoming the first Rwandan man to cross into Rwanda from Uganda through the Katuna boarder today at around 7:30am.

The East African Community applauds the two governments  -Uganda and Rwanda for their efforts towards re-opening of the Katuna boarder on the 31st of January, 2022 as earlier communicated.

The first cargo truck to enter Uganda through Katuna boarder with Rwanda was towed by a grader this morning after it failed to wade through the muddy ‘no man’s island’ road section that is currently under construction.
