Coordinates: 00°18′36″N 32°31′12″E / 0.31000°N 32.52000°E / 0.31000; 32.52000
Busega is a neighborhood within Kampala, Uganda's capital and largest city.
Busega is bordered by unincorporated Wakiso District to the north, Namungoona to the northeast, Lungujja to the east, Nateete to the south and Buloba to the west. This location is approximately 7.5 kilometres (4.7 mi), by road, southwest of Kampala's central business district.[1] Busega is located in Lubaga Division. The coordinates of Busega are:00 18 36N, 32 31 12E (Latitude:0.3100; Longitude:32.5200).
Busega is primarily a low-income residential neighborhood, with a few middle-class residences. Closer to Nateete, small businesses, shops and bars also compete for space in the neighborhood. It has only one shopping mall called Kasumba Square Mall, which is located at the intersection of Busega Round about and Kampala Northern Bypass Highway. The Northern Bypass Highway, which was opened in October 2009, passes through Busega.
Busega was also the location of the first recorded killing of young Christians; Makko Kakumba, Yusuf Rugarama, and Nuwa Sserwanga, all of them belonging to the Anglican faith, who were dismembered and burned on 31 January 1885, on the orders of Kabaka Mwanga II the Kabaka of Buganda at that time.[2]
