Public opinion is by mileages anti incumbents and instead of seeking goodwill of the electorate Lukuvi is running amock to burn whatever vestiges of restoration!
There are very good citizens who have been paying land rents without the regime giving them land ownership security and when that land is declared and reclaimed public land the same government is trigger happy to decree and declare no compensation will be paid on development on squatter lands,
Lukuvi is a JK holdout sleeping on his job and illegally taxing squatters ought to be his point of no return while sustaining him in the cabinet betrays everything this regime stands for or at least claiming to.
This government cannot have it both ways. Either MKURABITA is accounted for or the oral order on land rents at squatters is reversed as an overzealous minister gone berserk!
Actually, that will be musical to the ears of the much neglected urban poor
While Nyerere subsidized urban food supply chain to keep himself on power this regime is willing to risk urban unrest as it executes unconstitutional public policy which is in contempt with land laws and discriminatory against urban hoi polloi
Land rents are guided by law and only those with right of occupancy are legally entitled to pay them as section 33 (1) of the Land Ordinance amply demonstrates!
And squatters are not by any stretch of imagination legally qualify as owners of right of occupancy!
