Uganda Mulls New City to Decongest Capital as Akon Offer Holds
Uganda is considering building a new city to alleviate the congestion in its capital, Kampala. The proposed city will be located in an area adjacent to a square mile that the government has offered to R&B singer Akon for development. The move is part of the country's efforts to address the growing population and urban sprawl in Kampala. The new city is expected to provide additional living and business spaces, as well as improved infrastructure and services. The government is exploring this project as a potential solution to the overcrowding and infrastructure challenges faced by the capital. The Akon offer is also seen as an opportunity for the country to collaborate with the singer on a development project that could contribute to the country's economic growth and urban planning strategies.
