The government last year said through the Ministry of Lands that it would give Akon a place suitable in Uganda that has not less than 1 square mile.

News coming in now shows that the Uganda Land Commission yesterday handed over a land title to Lands Minister Judith Nabakooba for the land which has been allocated to Akon for the Akon City development.
