Effective April 1, 2023, Uganda's National Environment Management Authority (NEMA) will begin implementing its express penalty scheme that was announced on February 8. Among the breaches listed is “littering from cars", which will attract a maximum fine of up to Shs6m (US$1,632). Alex Taremwa, the Co-Founder of Last Drop Africa, sat down with NEMA Corporate Communications Manager, Naomi Karekaho to understand the thinking behind the penalty scheme, the public reaction to it and how it will be implemented.
