The authorities in Nakasongola District have accused government of delaying to resurvey Lubenge transborder wetland, part of which is being claimed by some investment companies.
In 2018, the district leaders instituted an ad hoc committee to investigate the alleged parcelling out of large chunks of land and degrading activity at the more than 10-square mile Lubenge wetland that the district shares with Luweero and Nakaseke.
