For the past few weeks, city tycoon Hamis Kiggundu aka Ham has been in a bitter fight with Buganda Kingdom over the multi-billion piece of land he bought in Kigo but has now decided to let it all down the trash.
After a long meeting with Buganda Land Board officials on Monday, businessman Hamis Kiggundu revealed that he will not pursue his interests in Kigo land, out of respect for Kabaka and to avoid confrontation with Buganda kingdom.
Speaking in a video in front of Bulange, the headquarters of Buganda kingdom after a meeting with Buganda Land Board officials, chaired by Prince David Wasajja, Hamis said he had lost interest in the contested land despite not being satisfied with the manner in which the matter had been handled.
“I bought this land from Wakiso, and the registrar gave me these titles. I tried not to say anything until today when I was invited to come here and take our surveyors to the land in question. Unfortunately, some officials in Buganda land board have not welcomed this idea.
I am Kiggundu Hamis Kiggundu and I am a Muganda by tribe. Buganda is Us and We are Buganda."- he said.
Ham, emerging out of the situation as the bigger-hearted party, said he had gone to Mengo expecting to be listened to, and actually go on the ground with BLB officials and their surveyors to establish the veracity of their claims, however some officials declined, claiming simply that the land in question belonged to the Kabaka.
