MUKONO: The evicted residents of Namulaba village, Dundu parish in Mukono district last week gained some hope after Mohamed Ssekweyama who evicted them failed to prove ownership of the land.
Ssekweyama evicted about 50 homes in 7 acre piece of land claiming he was the owner of the land and he wanted to make use of it something that prompted the poor residents to seek help from state house Anticorruption unit.

State house summoned Ssekweyama early this month to appear before Susan Abbo the presidential private secretary on legal affairs. When Ssekweyama reached to house he could not give any single document to prove that the land his claiming was his.
This forced Ms Abbo to order Ssekweyama never to interfere with the land owners he evicted. Janet Alice Nansiri aged 86 years who’s one of the victims said she was almost developing ulcers adding that the directive from state house to their tormentor was a relief for them
“We have suffered from this man and whenever he comes he holds his pistol ordering his boys to destroy all our crops”-says Nanziri
Muhamed Ssekweyama however refused to pick up our repeated calls neither replying our SMS to his phone.
