Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>A 92-year-old National Resistance Army (NRA) veteran has threatened to shoot apparent land grabbers targeting what he described as \u201chis land.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ex-NRA rebel Musa Mwanje who is a resident of Kiyanja Village in Mukono District Thursday claimed that \u201cpeople led some Special Forces Command (SFC) soldier only identified as Sobbi- went to his home last week and damaged a house built by President Museveni for his (Mwanje\u2019s) deceased son Meddie Muyanja who was also a UPDF officer.\u201d<\/p>\n

Speaking from his sickbay, Mr Mwanje denounced the unknown people who devastated his property without a court order even as matters regarding the contested land are in court.<\/p>\n

The 100-acre land in mention forms block 221, plot 118 in Kyaggwe.<\/p>\n

“They came here and destroyed things including crops, trees and went with the trees,” he told Monitor on August 11.<\/p>\n

Upon visiting the site, Mukono Police Officer in Charge (OC) Asp Michael Kato urged members of Mr Mwanje\u2019s family to be calm.<\/p>\n

But the veteran has called on Mr Museveni to intervene or he \u201cwill fight the land grabbers by gun.\u201d<\/p>\n

“I have a court order from KMP noting that no one is supposed to destroy any property on this land,” Mr Mwanje added.<\/p>\n

Land wrangles claim over 80 lives in Uganda annually, according to police data.<\/p>\n
