President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni is scheduled to hold talks this week with leaders of striking traders as protests over the Electronic Fiscal Receipting and Invoicing Solutions (EFRIS) system escalate nationwide. The demonstrations, which began last week, have resulted in widespread shop closures in city centers. Traders are disputing the implementation of the EFRIS system, citing concerns about its impact on their businesses. The anticipated meeting aims to address these grievances and explore potential solutions to the ongoing standoff. The outcome of the discussions between President Museveni and trader representatives is expected to have significant implications for the resolution of the dispute. It presents an opportunity for stakeholders to find common ground and mitigate the economic impact of the protests on businesses and the broader economy.
