Traders in Kampala Capital City have closed their shops to protest what they describe as an unfair tax regime by the Uganda Revenue Authority.

However, the traders argue that the current 18% VAT rate imposed on each trader as the goods move to the next trader or business amounts to double taxation and limits their competitiveness in the region. #NTVNews #NTVTonight #NTVWeekendEdition Subscribe to Our Channel For more news visit http://www.ntv.co.ug Follow us on Twitter http://www.twitter.com/ntvuganda Connect with us on Messenger via m.me/NTVUganda
