If you happen to be looking for scrapyard around town, do not look further than Port Bell in Luzira, Kampala. The pier located at the tip of the peninsular jutting into Lake Victoria, about 12kms southeast of the central business district, had once upon a time carved a niche for handling both passenger and cargo traffic destined for and from nearby ports, Kisumu in Kenya, Musoma and Mwanza in Tanzania, currently passes not only as dead ferries' dockyard but also a ghost territory-with everything seemingly deserted-save for the small private vessels that slosh around.
