Uganda Christian University [UCU] Vice Chancellor, Dr John Ssenyonyi survived being lynched by a mob while touring a disputed piece of land in Mukono District.

The group that included the Archbishop of the Church of Uganda Rev. Stanley Ntagali and 38 bishops of the same church had on Tuesday gone to visit a one square mile piece of land that belongs to Church of Uganda.

The land in question is currently being developed by Uganda Christian University, an institution of the church.

Hardly had the tour ended than a group of people who were meeting at a nearby bar approached the bishops hurling insults at the priests while threatening to kill them.

The mob brought match boxes and dry grass and tried to set the university’s bus which had transported the bishops to the site on fire.

Mukono Diocese Bishop James William Ssebaggala called police which rushed to the scene and dispersed the mob.

One member of the mob was arrested.

Dr Ssenyonyi said the land was donated to the Church of Uganda by the late Ham Mukasa in 1921 which later donated it to Bishop Tucker Theological College. Bishop Tucker was later renamed Uganda Christian University.

He said that some people who had occupied the land were compensated but others have adamantly ignored the law and continued to build houses on the land.
