Show Notes
Alan is on the road in his home country Uganda. Last week he visited Kampala’s markets – talking to customers concerned at a spike in the cost of food.
Many prices have more than doubled in recent weeks – whether it’s for sweet potatoes, a bag of cement or a litre of petrol.
It’s meant people choosing to drive less as they struggle to balance their budgets. Now, in a discussion recorded live in front of an audience in Kampala, Alan asks whether there is a solution to the cost of living crisis? Presenter: Alan Kasujja (@kassuja) Guest: Raymond Mujuni (@qataharraymond)
