1 Mins read

The head of commission of inquiry into land matters, Justice Catherine Bamugemereire has appealed to Ugandans to stop criticizing the land inquiry commission noting that the commission is only mandated to make recommendations to relevant authorities.

“We are not the one who take people to court, we don’t investigate and we are not the one who will prosecute,” she noted.

She made the remarks during her visit with commission members to CBS radio in Bulange, Mengo on Monday.

She noted that when recommendations made are not implemented, the commission calls upon relevant authorities to act positively.

She noted that some of these cases could have been taken to court immediately and they cannot stop evictions when an order has been issued by the court.

She added that there is need to set up land reconciliation team in cultural institutions that can help in the increasing land wrangles in the country. 

She however added that the findings of the commission will help to settle land wrangles in the country.
