However, these taxes will be accessible to all users who pay USH 200 everyday starting from 1st of July this coming weekend on Sunday. Therefore, to those who won’t be able to pay per day will pay as follows,
- Weekly…….1400 Ush
- Monthly…..6000 Ush
This was done mostly to eliminate people who use these platforms in a bad way, and improve on the government expenditure. This daily pay may seem to work for most Ugandans but every personnel must abide with the situation.
