KAMPALA — After management of a road trip around dubbed Uganda 360 escorted a passenger off the trip bus and charged him with orderly conduct, FlySafaris, a travel agent has confirmed Wednesday that it had been forced to remove sober buzzkill Tumusiime Brian from a recently organised trip.
“During our in-trip beverage service, in-trip bus ushers reminded Mr. Tumusiime that the bus was en route to Mbarara City and that he needed seven shots of Uganda Waragi ASAP, but he abstained, completely destroying the vibe,” the PRO of the safari agency Richard Ssekajja said of the passenger, who persisted in quietly reading a newspaper and was later administered a blood-alcohol test that revealed a level of 0%, far below the Uganda Drink Driving Administration’s legal minimum for travel during road trips.
“Despite repeated requests that he let it all hang out, Mr. Tunusiime declined anything stronger than ginger ale, speaking in calm, measured tones that most road trip organisers in Uganda do not tolerate on their tour buses. Fortunately, several passengers assisted our crew in subduing the gentleman, inserting a beer bong, and forcing him to funnel a muzinga of Uganda Waragi.”
Reached for comment, Tumusiime apologized for his behavior, telling Kiwani Reports that he had boarded the wrong trip vehicle and mistakenly thought the bus was bound for a born-again church in Rubaga.
