UNITA is being faced with a difficult situation, related to its real estate assets, whose return has been complaining without success to the Angolan Government, under the Lusaka protocol.
In addition, he observes, UNITA is experiencing a no less troubled moment that could culminate in the imminent loss of property that it bought from third parties, but that it did not register in its favor, meaning that the Black Cock party is, of course, the owner, but does not de swear.
According to the political analyst, Ilídio Manuel, there are factors that contributed to this, the most visible being the return to a war that did not allow this legal formality to be fulfilled.
“It is said that some smart kids will be taking advantage of this situation, claiming that they have rented the properties to UNITA, but that the Galo Negro party has not honored the rent payments for years. Could it be that situation that led to the eviction of that party in a building he occupied in Lobito? ”, He asks.
He also said that the public media was limited to divulging the fact, which does not seem to him to have gone to the bottom of the problem.
“The situation that UNITA has been experiencing brings to mind the various episodes that Angola went through after 1992 when some properties confiscated under the famous law no. 43/76 were returned to the former owners, the Portuguese settlers who had shaken before national independence ”, he stresses.
To the small mouth, continuing, it was said that the former Minister of Justice, P. TJipilika, will have been behind this “legal engineering” that will have explored the Government’s non-compliance with a formality, that is, this sovereign body, he had confiscated the properties, but he did not take care to transfer them to his legal sphere of the State.
For the analyst, in truth, it was not just lawyers engaged in this endeavor, but also judges, in a symbiosis that looked more like an “organized crime” syndicate.
“He reminded me that in 1996, the National Assembly had approved a Law that prevented the return of properties to former colonists, whether or not they were registered in favor of the Angolan State”, according to Ilídio Manuel.
In this sense, and, as far as he is aware, some processes will be underway to dislodge the largest Angolan opposition party, UNITA, from some of the buildings it occupies.
“I don’t know if there will be a hidden hand with shady political interests to make the lives of (little brothers), now under the leadership of (rebel) Adalberto Costa Júnior,” he said.
