Private cars will be allowed to move starting May 26 while restrictions on public transport will be relaxed on June 4 as government moves to ease the virus induced lockdown, President Museveni has said.

For border districts, we shall not allow public or private transport.

For public transport in the districts that are not near the border, this will be relaxed on June 4.

We said boda boda and tuk-tuks should not carry passengers but can keep carrying cargo," Mr Museveni said.

Those who can get masks on their own, we don't mind provided they are the right quality," Mr Museveni said.
