Chameleone’s Wife Daniella Files for Divorce: We Can Never Reconcile
The Chief Executive Officer of the Uganda Airlines, Jenifer Bamuturaki has lashed out at social media users for damaging the image of the national airline over claims that the bombardier aircrafts are unsafe for travel, stating that such claims are false.
“It is unfortunate that social media has taken a different angle. In terms of our safety and airworthiness, our aircraft meet all international and safety standards. We make sure we comply with every regulation as well as every policy that is brought upon us by the regulator,” Bamuturaki said.
She made the remarks while appearing before the Parliamentary Committee on Commissions, Statutory Authorities and State Enterprises (COSASE), where she revealed that in the five years Uganda Airlines has been in operation, revenue to the tune of sh1 Trillion has been injected into the economy. This was during the consideration of the December 2024 Auditor General’s report.
She has however shown her dismay to the social media users who have turned against the national airline brand and start preaching falsehoods against it, saying it is bad and those doing it should stop.
“Uganda Airlines has noted a significant increase in revenues. If we look at our revenues from the time the airline was started in 2019, when the airline made only sh28.5bn, now the airline cumulatively up to the last financial year made sh1.2 Trillion. That shows a growth pattern,” Bamuturaki said.
The Head of Engineering at Uganda Airlines, Peter Emuge has also refuted claims that the CRJ bombardier aircrafts are unsafe for travel due to scarcity of spare parts, saying the spare parts are available on market although it takes over 300 days from time of order to delivery, while the middle men who stockpile these spare parts charge double the price on the market.
