Taxi driver enters man's world - 2nd May 2022
Allen Kisakye Butundu is a taxi driver in Uganda. She uses a motorbike. The motorbike taxis, or 'boda boda', are popular there. But she's one of the first women taxi drivers.
Butundu is 27 years old. She started to ride a motorbike two years ago. But at the beginning, people didn't like the idea. Boda boda drivers are usually men. People sometimes shouted at her or followed her. She found it hard.
Learning to ride was difficult too. Her husband didn't want to teach her. But Butundu had to learn. She had an idea. She decided to stop boda boda drivers on the road. She paid them a little money to teach her. Now, Butundu's husband understands. He bought Butundu a motorbike.
