Africa-Press – Cape verde. The African Party for the Independence of Cape Verde (PAICV-opposition) suggested that the government finance the land registry of Praia municipality in order to avoid scandals caused by usurpation of land ownership.
This suggestion was made by the president of PAICV, Rui Semedo, after a meeting with the president of the Praia Municipal Council (PAICV), Francisco Carvalho, where, as he said, the “issue that has caused a lot of discussion” was specifically addressed, which is the use of urban spaces and land lots.
“We know that there was a big scandal around land in the municipal territory of Praia, it is in the courts and the whole national territory knows it, all Cape Verdeans here and in the Diaspora know that there was a big scandal around usurpation of land ownership or possession,” he said.
In this regard, Rui Semedo stated that it is necessary to “take great care in Praia” to solve this problem because it has been found that large areas of land are or have been claimed by holders who are not the owners.
