Empathy in Action: Mayor Alhajj Ali Mulyanyama Reaches Out to Struggling KCCA Workers on Women’s Day

In the heart of Kampala’s bustling streets, where the pulse of the city beats incessantly, lies the resilient community of workers at the Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA). For seven arduous months, these men and women, the lifeblood of the city’s operations, endured the harsh reality of unpaid salaries, their voices echoing in the corridors of power, pleading for recognition and justice.
Amidst the turmoil, a beacon of hope emerged in the form of Alhajj Ali Mulyanyama, the steadfast mayor of Makindye Division. With unwavering determination, he took up the mantle of championing the cause of these struggling women, lending his voice to their cries for fair treatment and overdue wages.
As the sun rose on International Women’s Day, a day dedicated to celebrating the strength and resilience of women worldwide, Mulyanyama, accompanied by Hon. Musiri David, the National Unity Platform (NUP) Leader of Institutions vying for the Makindye West MP Seat, embarked on a mission of compassion and solidarity.
Their destination was clear: to extend a helping hand to the brave women of KCCA who had endured months of financial uncertainty. Laden with essential provisions, they arrived at the doorstep of the workers, their arms filled with bags of rice, soap, posho, cooking oil, clothes, sugar, and the invaluable gift of monetary support.
With each gesture of kindness, they offered not just material aid, but a message of solidarity and empathy, a reminder that they were not alone in their struggle. Mulyanyama’s unwavering commitment to their cause echoed through the streets, a testament to the power of compassion and community in times of adversity.
It was a moment of profound significance, a tangible demonstration of the impact that collective action and unwavering leadership can have in the face of injustice. As the women received the much-needed provisions, their faces illuminated with gratitude and renewed hope, a testament to the transformative power of empathy and solidarity.
For Mulyanyama, this outreach was more than just a gesture of goodwill; it was a reaffirmation of his dedication to uplifting the marginalized and amplifying the voices of the unheard.

Through his tireless advocacy and compassionate leadership, he stood as a beacon of hope for the women of KCCA, a reminder that in the darkest of times, solidarity and compassion can illuminate the path forward.
