Imbuto y'umugisha yashibutse ku giti cy'umuruho

Mu ntangiriro ntibyari byoroshye, kuko ubwo ikigo cyabo cyatangiraga gutera imbere, baje kwibwa inkweto bari bamaze gukora bikabasubiza inyuma.

Shimwe yagize ati 'UTC ni rimwe mu maduka yageze i Kigali mbere, twabonaga tuhashyize inkweto twabona abakiliya ariko tukaba nta bushobozi bwo gukodesha iduka twari dufite. Tuza kumvikana n'uwari urifite tumuha inkweto zisaga 150 ngo aziducururize.'

Twarakomeje turagerageza ndetse ririya duka twari turifite ku mutima kuko riri ahantu heza kandi turifiteho n'amateka. Navuga ko igihombo twagiriye muri UTC mbere cyaduteye ishyari ryiza, bituma dukora cyane kugira ngo natwe tugire iduka ryacu. Mu 2016 twafunguye iduka kuri Kigali Height, kuko aha (UTC) haduhoraga ku mutima, twahafunguye iduka mu mwaka wa 2020.'

Kimwe n'ubundi bucuruzi bwose, ubwa Uzuri K&Y bwagizweho ingaruka zikomeye n'icyorezo cya Covid-19 kuko bimwe mu bikoresho bibafasha mu kazi kabo babikura hanze y'u Rwanda.

Ati 'Twafunguye iduka ryacu rya UTC haciye iminsi ibiri hahita haza gahunda ya Guma mu rugo. Ubwo inyungu zose twari twiteze zarahangirikiye. Ikindi kandi ibikoresho byinshi dukoresha tubikura hanze, kuba ingendo zari zarahagaze ntitwabonaga ibikoresho. Kubera Covid-19, habayeho ihindagurika ry'ubucuruzi umuntu atazi ngo buracya hakorwe iki no kubura ibikoresho, byatumye tutabasha gusohora inkweto twateganyaga gusohora muri 2020.'

Shimwe yavuze ko bitewe n'ubusabe bw'abakiliya, bakoze iyo bwabaga babasha kubona ibikoresho inkweto zirakorwa, ubu ziri kuboneka mu buryo buvuguruye.

Ati 'Abakiliya bacu bakomeje kutubaza inkweto tutari tugikora buri wese abaza izo ashaka. Twagerageje gukora uko dushoboye ubu ziri kuboneka kandi twabonye n'umwanya uhagije wo kuzikoraho neza ubu zirahari zimeze neza.'

Aho niho dushaka kubona Uzuri K&Y aho izaba imeze nka Nike buri wese abasha kuyibona akayimebya.'

Shimwe yashimangiye ko ukurikije urugendo n'inzira banyuzemo, baje kwiga ko urugendo rw'iterambere rushoboka kuri bose, bityo basaba abandi bakobwa bafite imishinga y'iterambere kwitinyuka bakayishyira mu bikorwa.
