Uganda’s Kabalega International Airport (KIA) has featured in several budget and State of the Nation addresses, but it has remained at 95 percent completion, and the government now says that the facility will begin operations within the next financial year.
While presenting the budget for the 2025/26 financial year, Finance Minister Matia Kasaija reported that the “operationalisation of Kabalega International Airport” is one of the “priority interventions” but did not provide more details.
