The Kabaka of Buganda, Ronald Muwenda Mutebi II has appealed to the Muslims scheduled for Eid al-Adha this Tuesday, to pray for God’s mercy against the ill intentions of people targeting the Kingdom property.

He has made the appeal in his message to all Muslims scheduled to celebrate Eid al-Adha slated for July 20, 2021a day on the Muslim calendar that commemorates Prophet Ibrahim’s willingness to sacrifice his son when God ordered him to.

The Kabaka in his message has appealed to all believers participating in this animal sacrifice to do it with a purpose of beseeching God to save the society, have mercy on people, and continue blocking all paths and voices targeting Buganda properties, especially ownership of land in a move to undermine and create hatred for Buganda in various ways.

Kabaka Mutebi also encouraged believers to pray for the Eleventh Parliament to legislate on matters that concern the entire country rather than issues regarding a particular region, faith, or political ideology. He says that this forms the basis for the development of Uganda and its people.

He has also said that courts of law must determine cases in time apprehend wrongdoers and release the innocent. And the courts should also exercise independence in determining cases based on evidence, law and truth.

President Yoweri Museveni, recently during the 32nd Heroes Day celebrations at Kololo Independence Grounds described Mailo land as a very bad and evil tenure system used in the Buganda Kingdom and must be reformed through parliament.

Meanwhile, Kabaka Mutebi appealed to Ugandans to continue observing the Standard Operating Procedures- SOPs aimed at preventing the spread of Coronavirus.
