Thigh vendors report business is too low this winter

In recent months, an unexpected challenge has arisen in the streets of Kampala, Uganda’s bustling capital: local se_x workers have found themselves facing stiff competition from an influx of foreign se_x workers.

This development has sparked concerns and complaints within the community, with local se_x workers arguing that their livelihoods are being threatened by the new arrivals.

The competition has intensified as foreign se_x workers, predominantly from neighboring countries like Kenya, Rwanda, and Tanzania, have increasingly set up shop in Kampala.

These women, often driven by economic hardships in their own countries, are seen as offering more competitive rates and sometimes providing services that local se_x workers do not. This has led to a noticeable shift in clientele, with many local se_x workers reporting a significant drop in business.

One local se_x worker, who preferred to be identified as Amina, voiced her frustrations: “We are struggling to make ends meet as it is, and now we have to compete with foreigners who are willing to do more for less.

It’s not fair, and it’s making it very hard for us to survive.”

Amina has been in the trade for over a decade and has seen many changes, but nothing as disruptive as the current situation.

The influx of foreign se_x workers is partly attributed to Uganda’s relatively stable economy compared to its neighbors.

Additionally, the perception of Kampala as a thriving hub for nightlife and entertainment has attracted many seeking better opportunities.

However, this influx has not been without its challenges. Local se_x workers argue that the increased competition has led to a race to the bottom, with prices for services plummeting and standards of living for local workers deteriorating.

Maria, another local se_x worker, explained that the newcomers often undercut prices significantly, making it difficult for those who have been in the industry for years to compete. “It’s not just about the money,” Maria said. “We have families to take care of, children to feed, and rent to pay. When the prices drop, we suffer. The government needs to do something to protect us.”

The issue has also brought to light broader concerns about health and safety within the industry. Local se_x workers argue that the influx of foreigners has led to an increase in unregulated activities, posing risks to both the workers and their clients. They fear that the lack of proper health checks and adherence to safety protocols by some foreign workers could lead to a rise in se_xually transmitted infections and other health issues.

Local advocacy groups have begun to step in, urging the government to take action. The Uganda Se_x Workers Alliance (USWA) has been particularly vocal, calling for better regulation and support for local se_x workers. “We need a fair playing field,” said Janet Namanda, a spokesperson for USWA. “Our members are being pushed out of business by unfair competition. The government must ensure that all se_x workers, regardless of nationality, adhere to the same standards and regulations.”

The government’s response has been mixed. While some officials acknowledge the challenges faced by local se_x workers, there has been little concrete action taken to address the issue. Law enforcement agencies often turn a blind eye to the plight of se_x workers, focusing instead on broader issues of crime and public order. This lack of attention has only exacerbated the frustrations of local workers who feel abandoned and ignored.

For now, the streets of Kampala remain a battleground, with local se_x workers continuing to fight for their share of the market amidst growing competition. As the situation evolves, it remains to be seen whether the government will step in to provide the support and regulation needed to create a fair and safe environment for all workers involved. Until then, Amina, Maria, and their colleagues will continue to navigate the challenges of their profession, hoping for a resolution that ensures their survival and dignity in an increasingly crowded field.
