“This land is forcefully being allocated to some one claiming to be General Salim Saleh’s wife. But the game is that city officials want to share part of it among themselves.
“The Lands Office is now using powerful people to grab land from Mbale people, this has happened to many people in the City. People are hear crying helplessly. We kindly ask concerned agencies to intervene and save the poor Ugandans who are already victims of these ruthless mafias,” claimed a source on condition of anonymity.
