MP Ikana further stated that he has come up with strong efforts to settle the dispute, faulting a section of MPs for creating barriers and using it to seek political mileage.
“The land dispute in the school has taken a new twist as teachers and learners face more challenges which are increasing on daily basis disrupting learning programs,” he said.
The lawmaker also said although he has come up with efforts to settle the dispute, but has been held up with barriers as a result of cases concerning the dispute at the institution.
He pledged to fight the battle until the end, promising to make sure the Vukutsa community has received their rights through the school.
