Buganda Land Board (BLB), the kingdom\u2019s entity responsible for land matters, is an \u201cillegal\u201d outfit that profits a clique to the exclusion of majority of Kabaka\u2019s subjects, a central government minister has said.
\nMr Sam Mayanja, the State Minister for Lands, said yesterday that Mengo, the administrative seat of Buganda, runs BLB as a private company to profiteer from public land by \u201cillegally\u201d charging for issuance of Kyapa Mungalo (titles on Kabaka\u2019s land).<\/p>\n

The charges by the minister, a Buganda critic, were unsurprisingly received with disdain by officials at Mengo who described him as \u201cdishonest\u201d and an \u201cembarrassment\u201d.
\n\u201cBLB is an agent that acts for the Kabaka (Muwenda Mutebi). The Kabaka is the registered proprietor on all kingdom titles,\u201d said Mr Dennis Bugaya, the BLB legal head, and spokesperson.<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cMinister Mayanja in 2015 and 2016 represented BLB as one of its lawyers where he put up arguments that are a clear opposite of what he has just uttered. This points to dishonesty on his side.\u201d<\/p>\n
