Mbarara City › The Web Advice

Description

Known as the Land Of Milk And Honey, Mbarara Town is believed to have picked its name from the local tall green grass locally known as Emburara (hyperenia ruffa) that covered the whole area. Its real commercial growth began with the appearance of the Asian traders and by 1950 there were about 15 commercial premises. More commercial enterprises were set up between 1950 and 1960 In 1957, it was declared a Township authority under the British Administration at Kamukuzi Elevated to a Municipal status in 1974. Mbarara town was however affected by the liberation wars of 1972, 1979, and 1986 which destroyed the existing structure among many others hence retarded the urban growth.
