Residents of Buikwe County south are set to sue government over its failure to compensate them for their lost land in a road constriction project.

According to the area MP Lulume Bayigga government told the residents to vacate their homes and properties in favor of Kyetume-Katosi and Nkokonjeru –Kisoga Nyenga road construction but until now nothing has been done.

“We have resorted to sue government  because it has failed both to compensate people, and construct the roads. We have collected over 326 signatures from the residents affected and  we  are ready to sue government .” Dr Lulume noted

The residents are filling their case through Ambrose and company Advocates

“It’s now 5 years since parliament approved the budget of constructing our roads but nothing has  been done, apart from light grading the 74km roads.” He added

On to the same development, resident of Mukono municipality yesterday  threatened to hold a peaceful demonstration in 30days  if the Minister of Works and Transport ,Abraham Byandala fails to assure them how far  his office  has gone with the preparations of constructing  Seta-Namugongo, Misinydye-Kasayi, Kyetume-Katosi, Kirowoza-Namanve and Mukono-Kayunga roads.
