The temporary camp established by the disgruntled land claimants at the Kasese RDC office, may not dissolve after the protesters were dissatisfied with the land minister’s decision for them to wait for more three months as the land surveyors technically analyze concerns on the contested pieces of land across the district.
Addressing more than 2000 land claimants at the Kasese Multipurpose hall this afternoon, Hon. Sam Mayanja, the State Minister for land, called for what many described as self-made disorder by the crowed after the bragging minister insisted nobody could be allowed to question his decision to leave the Kasese RDC in charge of matter.
Hon. Mayanja speaking…
According to some land victims, the visit by the Ministers was almost empty, indicating that they were ready for any risky decision against the camp they were not to dissolve soon. Mzee Kasamba speaking…….
Ms Muhesi Masika whose husband, Mr. Zebidayo Masereka, was killed over land wrangles, could not believe the decision by the Minister who could not guide the situation. Ms Muhesi speaking…..
In a separate interview after the meeting, Rt. Hon. Best Juliet Kambale Bakoko, the Rwenzururu Kingdom Second Deputy Premier, asked Lt. Joe Walunsimbi, the Kasese RDC to bring on board other stakeholders, including the faith based and cultural institutions among others now that the lands minister had entrusted him with the power for a lasting solution. Rt. Hon. Best speaking……..
