Lukwago, whose exploits have mostly put him on collision course with the Central Government, was controversially thrown out of office during his last term following several skirmishes with Kampala Capital City Authority boss Jeniffer Musisi over management control.

However, Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA) executive director Jennifer Musisi has pledged to work with all the newly elected leaders of Kampala city including Lord Mayor Erias Lukwago.

“KCCA is credited for being the best city authority in the region. I would like to congratulate you all who were elected. We are ready to work with you in transforming the city together,” said Ms Musisi.

Lukwago’s swearing-in that had originally been set for June 1 was postponed on the advice of police citing inadequate security as most of their personnel were engaged during the state visits of the presidents of South Korea and Turkey, and also the hectic Martyrs’ Day celebrations.

Kampala Metropolitan Police spokesperson Patrick Onyango said police had cleared 15 vehicles for Lukwago’s entourage to the swearing-in ceremony.

Lukwago trounced NRM’s Dan Kazibwe and Issa Kikungwe in the Febuary general elections.

On June 16, the administrator ordered the arrest of two KCCA officials including; the Procurement Officer, Grace Tabuzibwa and Education Director, Charles Masaba.

Tebuzibwa was arrested for roofing the Makindye Division headquarters with iron sheets in 2007 instead of tiles and Masaba for allegedly stealing a KCCA vehicle in 2006.

On Wednesday she also ordered the demolition of a house belonging to a city tycoon Moses Kalungi after sending him to prison the same day.

The demolition of the house was on grounds that Kalungi built the house in the road reserve and he never used a building plan.

Kalungi has however threatened to sue KCCA for demolishing his 200 million shillings worth building without a warning and losing other properties worth millions at the premises.
