He revealed that during the Consular visits, a total of 87 Ugandans were identified and confirmed by the officials of the Ugandan Embassy in Türkiye to have been detained by the Turkish Authorities due to overstaying their visas which is in breach of the immigration regulations of the Republic of Türkiye.

“The Ministry wishes to assure the general public of its commitment to continue engaging with the relevant Turkish authorities to find a mutually acceptable solution to address these concerns and the affected families will be updated in due course,” Bagiire noted in a statement released on August 28.
