Buganda Fires Back at Minister Mayanja Over Kaazi Land Dispute

The conflict over the Kaazi land has been ongoing for several years, with both the BLB and the government claiming ownership

The Buganda Land Board (BLB) has hit back at Minister of State for Lands, Sam Mayanja, after he accused the board of operating illegally.

BLB counsel Denis Bugaya has vowed to take Minister Mayanja to court for disrespecting the Buganda Kingdom.

The dispute centers around the Kaazi land in Wakiso District, which has been controversial between the BLB and the government.

While the BLB claims ownership of the land, the government insists that it is public land.

According to Bugaya, Minister Mayanja's accusations are baseless and represent a clear disrespect to the Buganda Kingdom.

"We will not take this lying down," Bugaya said. "We will take Minister Mayanja to court and prove that the BLB is operating within the law."

The BLB has been at the center of several land disputes in recent years, including the contentious Kaazi land.

The board has been accused of issuing land titles to individuals without following proper procedures, a claim that the BLB denies.

During a recent visit to the Kaazi land, Kabaka Ronald Muwenda Mutebi II commended the BLB for its efforts in managing the disputed property.

The Kabaka urged the BLB to continue protecting the Kingdom's land and to work with the government to resolve the dispute.

The conflict over the Kaazi land has been ongoing for several years, with both the BLB and the government claiming ownership.

The land has been the subject of controversy, with several individuals and companies asserting ownership.

He claimed that the BLB's actions threatened the government's efforts to manage public land.

However, the BLB has denied the minister's accusations, insisting that it is operating within the law.

The board has vowed to continue protecting the Kingdom's land and to work with the government to resolve the dispute.
