People feel worried about some land in Mbale City. The leaders told police workers to leave their offices near the city court. Many think bad people might try to take this land away from everyone.
On January 16, Mr. Ambrose Ocheng wrote a letter telling the workers to go work at different places. He did not explain clearly why they needed to move, which made everyone feel scared about what might happen to the land.
Robert Kisesi helps lead the city. He wants to know why these changes happened fast without anyone telling him the real reason. He thinks someone might want to steal this special piece of land. The land is in a very nice place, and the city needs it to improve things later.
Another leader, Abdallah Magambo, says everything will be fine. He tells people the workers moved because the court needs more space. He says the land belongs to everyone, and no one will take it away. But many people do not believe him.
More trouble came up at North Road Primary School. Someone put a fence around part of the school's land, which made people who care about the school feel afraid. They thought someone wanted to take the school's land because it was in a good place.
These things remind everyone of when bad people took other land away. They once stole some land from the city court. The people living in Mbale City want their leaders to make sure no one steals any more land from them.
