Security forces joined locals to clean streets in Mubende, Uganda, ahead of the Tarehe Sita celebrations.
Deputy RDC Abubaker Birungi launched the event at Kasana Playground. Police and army teams worked together to tidy markets and public spaces.
"When people see uniformed officers cleaning, it shows the importance of sanitation," Birungi said. He asked residents to keep their town clean.
District Police Commander Martin Kalekyeezi praised ties between security forces and locals. Lt. John Kahiindi Francis from the Defence Shop echoed these views.
Assistant RDC Andrew Solomon Musiindi noted changes in public trust. "Under Amin, people ran from uniforms. Today, I saw a soldier asking politely to clean near a woman's items," he said.
The cleanup marks a regular part of Tarehe Sita events. Security teams plan similar actions for future celebrations.
Resident Deogracious Kabudono welcomed the initiative. "Years ago, soldiers scared us. Today, we feel comfortable with them," he said.
The event highlights improved relations between Uganda's security forces and citizens. Officers demonstrated their commitment to community service through direct action.
