Kampala traders have withdrawn their civil case against city businessmen Drake Francis Lubega and Mansur Matovu Yanga.

Last week, traders from Qualicell bus Terminal, Nabukeera plaza and Jamboree Arcades petitioned the High court -Land division asking to deposit their rent with the court until the on-going management problems on who owns the buildings are sorted out.

Currently, both Lubega and Mansur are claiming ownership of the building and want the traders to pay them their rent arrears which they say had been paid to Horizon Coaches Limited formerly under the management by the late Charles Muhangi.

Today, the traders through their lawyer Erias Lukwago withdrew the case citing the allocation of the file to Justice Andrew Bashaija instead of Justice Musa Ssekaana.

Bashaija ordered traders to pay costs to Lubega and Yanga.
