Northern Province Governor, Gary Juffa, is seriously concerned about the health and well-being of the people in Popondetta Town.
Governor Juffa was responding to N EMTV News report on piles of neglected rubbish at the Popondetta Market becoming an eye sore.
Juffa said he had visited the market and tasked local authorities on ground to meet and find solutions to address the litter issue in Popondetta Town.
“The responsibility is with the town major, urban LLG, Higaturu LLG, the administration.
