Godfrey Kiwanda Ssuubi, the Buganda Parliamentary Caucus Chairman also paid tribute to Buganda legislators and subjects for the resilience exhibited in demanding the return of Buganda Properties. Kiwanda also called for unity 8in demanding for what still remains in governments possession.
Sylvia Namabidde, the Mityana District Member of Parliament noted that the return of the 213 land titles to Mengo exhibits a flourishing relationship between the centre and the kingdom.
