The office of the Kagadi District Resident Commissioner has pledged to assist Mabaale Town Council in securing a 99-year land lease from Bunyoro Kitara Kingdom.
This will enable the establishment of permanent government infrastructure at the town council headquarters.
The assurance was given by Deputy RDC Benjamin Tumusiime during the commissioning of a renovated administration block worth UGX 50 million.
