Ugandan singer turned politician Bobi Wine has called out the Ugandan government to intervene and help reduce the cost of cooking chapati in the country. The 40-year-old released a statement saying Ugandans cannot buy/cook the popular meal due to the high cost of living.
Born Robert Kyagulanyi Ssentamu, Wine said reducing the commodity's price will ensure that Ugandans do not suffer. He suggested that the government remove all taxes associated with chapati production, i.e., tax on wheat and cooking oil.
