Uganda Land Dispute: Family Torn Apart Over Property

Land Dispute in Kayunga, Uganda: Husband and Wife Clash Over Property, Child's Education at Stake A land dispute in Kayunga, Uganda, is causing significant distress for a family and highlighting the challenges of land ownership in rural areas. Stanley Mwanie claims his wife, Jane Kigongo, is blocking his access to their land, which is impacting their child's education. "She won't let me near the land," Mwanie stated, his voice filled with frustration. "It's affecting our ability to provide for our child's schooling." Kigongo, however, has a different perspective. While the video doesn't provide her direct quote, her actions suggest a counterclaim to the land's ownership or use. The situation has drawn the involvement of community members, who are working to mediate the conflict and find a solution that benefits the family and respects legal processes. This case underscores the complexities of land disputes in Uganda, particularly in rural settings, where land often holds deep cultural and economic significance. The community's efforts to resolve the issue peacefully offer a glimmer of hope for a positive outcome.
