The legal troubles of newly appointed state lands Minister Aidah Nantaba are far from over.

A city lawyer Peter Kibirango has filed an application before court seeking to be allowed to serve the minister with the petition against her appointment through the newspapers.

Kibirango says he has taken all necessary steps to effect personal service to Nantaba in vain.

The lawyer filed a petition before court challenging the decision of Parliament’s appointment’s committee that cleared her to assume the position as minister.

He wants the decision of the committee that cleared Nantaba’s appointment to be set aside because it is inconsistent with several articles of the constitution.

Kibirango argues that the committee has already pronounced itself on the matter and has no mandate to revisit its mandate.

He says the matter should have been taken to the floor of Parliament for an appeal, which wasn’t done.

Kibirango is seeking interpretation of several sections of the constitution with a view of having Nantaba’s appointment cancelled.
