The demolition of St Peters church, Ndeeba was the climax of a four-decade property wrangle between the Church of Uganda and the joint administrators of the estate of the late Evelyn Nachwa, a Buganda Kingdom Princess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Available documents indicate that in 2008, the joint administrators sued the Church of Uganda, the Commissioner of Land Registration and other parties accusing them of fraudulently registering the said land in names of Bishop Danistan Nsubuga, Rev Yuda Kitaka, and Esau Kizito who were trustees of the Church of Uganda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But the case was never disposed of, until August 21, 2019, when the High Court Land Division ruled that the land in question was still in the vested interest of the late Evelyn (Evarini) Nachwa and that it had been fraudulently registered in the names of the church trustees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Court further ordered the commissioner Land registration to return the duplicate certificate of title with respect to the suit to the administrators of the estate of the late Evelyn Nachwa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This order was contested by the registered trustees of the Church of Uganda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Last month, the plaintiff in the matter went back to the court seeking an order to demolish the Church structure on the land in question which Justice John Eudes Keitirima granted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The decision by Justice John Keitirima was based on the fact that the administrators of the estate had been declared rightful owners of the property, last year. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
