According to Stanley, the Gayaaza based bitter liquor processors were given ample time to clear up but became adamant calling for their hard position of closing it down. “We had reached an agreement of paying in installments in 2014, but since then they haven’t paid any single coin, we can’t allow them go on with production” added Mr.Stanley.

He added that the company management requested for some time to sort out the debts, which time frame Ura granted but again it failed to comply letting the tax debt accumulate toUgx 9.2 billion.
