{UAH} An LC 1 chairperson should not charge witness fees to witness your land transaction.

An LC 1 chairperson should not charge witness fees to witness your land transaction.

If it is a kibanja purchase, look for the landlord to give consent and witness the transaction for it is against the law to carry out a transaction on land without the consent of the land lord. In fact, the transaction is rendered null and void and the kibanja reverts back to the land lord thus the purchaser losing both the kibanja and their money.(In case of Kabaka's land, have Buganda Land Board as the witness).

If it is titled land, do a proper search, and go on with your transaction using any witness you are comfortable with(it is not a must to have a witness. Just have a proper title transfer effected)

The 10% given to LC 1s drives corruption and fraud in transactions as they seek to earn more by purporting to witness multiple transactions on the same piece of Land......... The role of the LC is always to witness and make the Ndagaano.Both buyer and seller give akasiimo. Maybe 100k from buyer n 50k from seller.
