Hajji Hamis Kiggundu said this while welcoming a team of KCCA Officials headed by the acting Executive Director Mr. Frank Rusa to monitor the situation at Nakivubo stadium and the ongoing constructions around, allegedly blocking the route to the nearby Catholic Church and also causing floods in the area.

During the visit, Hamis, responded as a law abiding citizen and accepted the call from Mr. Frank Rusa, the pause for a short while, the ongoing constructions and toloret a team of engineers from the KCCA take a keen survey, see how to coordinate together and clear the air against the allegations amicably.

According to Hamis, “ KCCA has taken a further practical step to come on ground and make physical assessment on what is happening to make resolution to the problem from a realistic and reasonable point of view.”

Giving assurance, Hajji Hamis said that with these kinds of dialogues and meetings between him, Hamis company Ltd and KCCA, a lot of issues shall be solved within the city. And pledged to standardize at his cost, the drainage systems around with permission from KCCA.

In lengthy comments, Hamis included that he appreciates guidance, recently through a call from the head of the Catholic Church of Uganda, Archbishop Paul Ssemogerere to see how the historical church retains full access from its believers.

“The church is a strong foundation and here we are talking about God, I can not block any paths leading to God because I am also a God fearing person, it is the almighty who accepts me to breath and empowers me to make wealth” he acknowledged.

Frank Rusa, the acting Executive Director KCCA said, his visit with the entire team was about getting facts and proving what people have been talking about, however, KCCA is going to do everything in order to ensure that order is restored and vendors around are not disturbed by the issues of floods and have their properties safe.

The development has been stopped for now to let KCCA engineers swing into action , investigate the matter and give a report to sort out issues, he explained.
