Lugogo River

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rivers and lakes of Uganda with the Lugogo River (center)

The Lugogo River is a river of Uganda in eastern Africa. It is located in the central part of the country and flows in a south easterly direction from the Kabi River.

The river has been subject to diversion by excavation work related to the construction of a Chinese Agro-industrial park, which has impacted water supplies for local residents.[1] In 2024, local residents complained of pollution to the river and the wetland that feeds it from the runoff of a local sugar factory.[2]
