Hey folks, this is not true. Land is key factor of production and as such land control and ownership is a critical issues under the common market. Ugandans should however note that under the common market protocol, access to land use of land will be governed by the national politics and laws of the partner states. The government of Uganda through consultation with the public is developing a national land policy and reviewing the land laws. The ministry of east African community affairs has communicated some of the concerns raised by the public through the national land policy consultation process. It is these policies once developed that will govern how Ugandans and those seeking to acquire and use land be they from the EAC region or foreigners in Uganda.
