Kololo Airstrip

All the African nostalgia has got me wondering. Does anyone have any information on the history/background of Kololo airstrip in Kampala? Many years ago I used to live adjacent to it: even then (mid-60's) it had obviously been unused for many years, with just a few isolated thin shreds of tarmac amongst the murram. The only piece of information I can remember is that it possibly had a connection with the Police Air Wing - but googling only brings up data on its current useage. Anyone?
