Ngongolo, Kajansi Town Council, Wakiso District – Residents of Ngongolo village are living in fear following a series of violent attacks by a group of individuals allegedly hired to evict them from their land. The assailants, armed with machetes, have been setting houses on fire in what appears to be a campaign of intimidation to force residents off their properties.
Residents accused Abenaitwe’s workers of intimidation, trespassing, and sexual harassment of women. They further claimed that the workers had blocked access to community water sources, forcing villagers to travel long distances to fetch water elsewhere.
