By Stephen Akabway JrAfter Brig Gen Jacob Musajjawaza being sued in June last year by a widow over his late husband’s over two prime acres of land in Kawuku, Bbunga in Makindye Division, the retired military officer has once again courted controversy, after reports have emerged that he and his siblings reportedly applied to court for letters of administration over the same property.The certificate of title prior to or after its cancellation by the commissioner of land registration, who replaced the same with a special certificate of title, though, it’s has not been established if the original one had gotten lost without a trace, was registered in the deceased, Ssebadduka Kyakonye Mukasa’s (SKM’s) names.Nakirayi affirms SKM’s certificate of title formerly registered as Kyadondo Block 248 Plot 275, was apparently cancelled on the application of Musajjawaza’s group and fear is rife that the resultant special certificate of title was registered by the commissioner of land registration in the names of one, two or even three people among Musajjawaza’s group.Puzzlingly, Nakirayi asserts the same subject land had been given to the late SKM by his late father, Yokana Makumbi Musoke (YMM) who passed on April 26, 1986 and that on December 2, 2023, the son duly obtained a certificate of title in his names vide instrument number KCCA 121655.The subject land was mutated and curved out of the late YMM’s land registered then as Kyadondo Block 248 Plot 21.The widow’s lawyers from the law firm of Lukwago and Company Advocates, enlighten that whereas the Musajjawaza’s group’s application to court talks of their wish to administer their late father’s estate, their concealed key target was the late SKM’s subject land that they sought to deal with and into in the way they want.In any case, the late SKM’ certificate of title had since controversially been cancelled and then a disputed special certificate of title controversially issued by the commissioner of land registration.Worth to note at this juncture, Brig Gen Musajjawaza’s late father, YMM before his demise on April 26, 1986, had appointed his preferred estate administrators who included his widow, Meyi Nambalirwa and, who, duly obtained letters of administration to his estate and subsequently acted upon them to distribute properties forming the estate in accordance with the dictates and wishes reflected in his last Will.In spite of what has been written in the immediate foregoing paragraph, Musajjawaza’s group themselves for the second time in a row, defiantly applied for yet another set of letters of administration to potentially base on them and administer their father’s estate.But clearly remember, the deceased himself before his demise, had appointed his three preferred administrators to his estate. Consider. Those administrators upon his demise, had subsequently obtained letters of administration to his estate. Think hard. The same administrators even relied on the same documents and distributed the estate in question. And yet, ironically, Musajjawaza’s group reportedly later on went on court and applied to acquire letters of administration to the same estate in question and base on them to repeat for yet the second time all the same, the distribution of the one and the same estate mentioned multiple times herein.But Nakirayi’s attorneys from the Kampala Lord Mayor, Hajj Ssalongo Erias Lukwago’s law firm, warn Musajjawaza’s group if granted the documents they seek from and by court, they would waste no time and deal in the land in a manner detrimental to the interests of the widow herself and the interests of the rest of her fellow beneficiaries thereto.But Brig Musajjawaza, Margret, Nabangya and all of their siblings who are cited by the respondents by the widow vide her application for a caveat over Musajjawaza’s group’s application until the hearing of her previous head suit referenced as Civil Suit Number 33 of 2024 for ease of reference, maintain the subject land at Kawuku forms part of the estate of their departed father, YMM’s estateBut the foregoing averments by Musajjawaza’s group, amazingly, seem to imply the late SKM just merely sprang up one day and grabbed the subject land, obtained a certificate of title over it and then proceeded and utilized the same and yet his surviving family, who are also his beneficiaries, are now all over the place while claiming how the Musajjawaza’s group were reportedly scheming to grab their late family’s head’s property.Musajjawaza’s group’s averments somewhat is proof that they are actually interested in switching the land back to their late father’s names and thereafter, proceed and apply for letters of administration and later on base on them again and distribute the same and one deceased’s estate again that currently consists of their late brother, SKM’s estate.Nakirayi’s rejoins and assert that prior to SKM’s demise, no one of his siblings had raised any objection to their ownership of the subject land and, consequently, they had all along, enjoyed the quite possession and interrupted utilization of the same albeit that the late SKM had all along permitted one of their siblings, Rosira Nantume to stay at the place and even utilize the suit property.Puzzlingly, Rosira Nantume has since joined Musajjawaza’s group to defeat the interests of the SKM’s surviving beneficiaries, who include, his widow, Mary Nakirayi, to the suit property.Nevertheless, the widow soldiers on and assert how her deceased father-in-law, YMM, left behind a Will and indicated what he had given to whom, where and how much and also specified who he had not given anything out of his estate and why.She continues and assert that no one of his surviving children, has since ever raised any objections to the late YMM’s last Will nor anyone of its contents therein. What she seemingly seeks to imply, is that her late father-in-law’s last Will since his departure from the sin-infested planet Earth for the next world, has remained uncontested undisputed and therefore pure, valid, fair and just.Well, how these regrettable matters are going to put out in court and how they are going to be finally resolved, let us sit back, listen, observe, and analyses the arguments and counter arguments as well as the counsel from the bench.In the meantime, we are going to keep following the proceedings and relay them to you dear readers as they keep unfolding.
