[UAH] Hon Nantaba - Singo shooting fields, Kasenyi, Luwero Industries is stole land

To Minister of Lands Hon. Idah Nantaba

 

Dear Honourable Minister

 

Congratulation on becoming the first Chairperson of the newly constituted lands committee.

 

Can you resettle and return land to the people who were allegedly and illegally evicted from their land on which they had lived for so many years by NRA in 1980s? Additionally could you organise in the courts of laws for prosecution of NRA leaders,  full compensation for the suffering, destruction of property and resettling people back to their ancestral lands.

 

These are the people:

 

People who were chased away from Kanyonyi- to Kiguli area by NRA to start Luwero mines factory

 

People chased away from Singo area for establishment of an artillery-shooting fields and Kyankwanzi political school?

People chased away from Kasenyi training fields in Entebbe.

 

People chased from Mubende for establishment of Kaweri Coffee plantation under barbaric means (notice Uganda /Buganda/Bugishu have always produced coffee from small scale farmers)

In Worcester v. Georgia, one of the most cited domestic law judicial opinions in the world, Marshall wrote that the rights of discovery belonging to European discoverers under the European Law of Nations could not affect the property rights of the Indians of America, who were "already in possession, either as aboriginal occupants, or as occupants by virtue of a discovery made before the memory of man."[225]

In 2000 it was discovered that a one-woman nrm minister was using government agents driving uc vechiles to force Baganda off their land in Luwero. Indeed some people lost a lot of property the law never acted.

NRA / NRM was not the first and it will certainly not be the last military outfit in this region. There were armies before and established training fields. The reasons as to why many of these military training fields are established in Buganda as opposed to open land in North Ankole and why the Baganda had to take on NRA vengeance by forcedly being evicted are not readily understood.

 

The question is, were these evictions an act of parliament – on just a decree by certain entities?

 

Your admirer and staunch supporter  

 

Bwanika Nakyesawa Luwero
