Minister of Finance, of the power to issue a repossession Certificate to a former owner must come to the High Court as an appeal authorized under Section 15(1) of that Act, within 30 days from the date of the communication of the decisi on to the person challenging the decision. \par \par Learned Counsel for the Plaintiff, Mr. Mungoma, has opposed the submission by both Counsel. According to him }{\insrsid5385573\charrsid6898182 the holdings in }{\i\ul\insrsid5385573\charrsid6898182 Mohan Musisi Kiwanuka Vs. Asha Chand, Civil Appeal No.4 of 2002 and Mansukhlal Ramiji K aria & Others Vs. Attorney General & 2 Others, Court of Appeal Civil Appeal No.20 of 2002 as well as Oil Seeds (U) Ltd Vs. The Attorney General, CA Civil Appeal No.127 of 2003. }{\insrsid5385573\charrsid6898182 According to learned counsel for the Plaintiff, an appeal under Section 15(1 ), of the EPA must be commenced in the High Court by ordinary suit as the authorities cited above state. Once that is the position, the person intending to file such a suit will have to observe the requirement of serving a statutory notice to the Attorne y General. He or she can, therefore, not be bound by the limitation of the 30 days provided for under Section 15(1) of the EPA.}{\insrsid2098500\charrsid6898182 \par }{\insrsid5385573\charrsid6898182 \par With the greatest respect to learned Counsel, Court thinks that that argument is not well founded. \par \par Indeed, all the three autho rities cited above were merely concerned with procedure for presenting an appeal under Section 15(1), of the EPA before the High Court. They were not concerned with the limitation aspect of the appeal provided for under that section. Those decisions wer e limited to whether the person appealing would do so by way of a memorandum of appeal or by way of an ordinary suit. \par \par Secondly, in }{\i\ul\insrsid5385573\charrsid6898182 Bashir Ahamed Arain Vs. Uganda Kwegatta Construction Ltd. CS No. 612 of 1999}{\insrsid5385573\charrsid6898182 , this court did emphatically observe that all qu estions relating to repossession of the expropriated properties ought to be determined within the ambit of the EPA, 1982. }{\insrsid11863356\charrsid6898182 The}{\insrsid5385573\charrsid6898182 EPA is a specific law. It is also a later law than the }{ \i\ul\insrsid5385573\charrsid6898182 Civil Procedure }{\i\ul\insrsid11863356\charrsid6898182 A}{\i\ul\insrsid5385573\charrsid6898182 nd Limitation (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act,}{\insrsid5385573\charrsid6898182 Cap.72 or any other law providing for the serving of a notice before }{\insrsid6445811\charrsid6898182 filing a suit against the Government. In short, Court is of the view that even if an appeal under Section 15(1) is presentable by way of an ordinary suit in the High Court, it remains a statutory appeal presented by way of a statutory suit which remains governed solely by Section 15(1) of the EPA in as far as the limitation aspect is concerned. That suit must be filed in the High Court not later than 30 days after the decision of the Minister was communicated to the person filing it or upon whose behalf it is filed.}{\insrsid5385573\charrsid6898182 \par }{\insrsid6445811\charrsid6898182 \par In the instant case, the Hon. Minister exercised his powers under Section 3(1) of the EPA on 4}{\super\insrsid6445811\charrsid6898182 th}{\insrsid6445811\charrsid6898182 January, 06. Mrs. Namirembe Olijo Ruth, wrote exhibit D2, which is a notification to t he tenants and occupants of the suit property, of the fact of repossession. The plaintiff in his evidence admits early receipt of the communication. However, this suit was not filed in Court until 20}{\super\insrsid6445811\charrsid6898182 th}{ \insrsid6445811\charrsid6898182 June, 06, nearly 6 months afterwards. Like all limi tation provision, Section 15(1) is not flexible. It is not elastic. It operates upon the basis of mathematics. An appeal that is presented more than 30 days after the fact of the issuance }{\insrsid11863356\charrsid6898182 of the certificate of repossession has been communicated is incompetent. It is barred by law. }{\i\ul\insrsid11863356\charrsid6898182 Iga Vs. Makerere University [1972] E. A. 65}{\insrsid11863356\charrsid6898182 . }{\insrsid6445811\charrsid6898182

\par }{\insrsid11863356\charrsid6898182 \par Consequently, the Plaintiff\rquote s case, in as far as it challenges the return of the suit property by the Hon. Minister of Finance, is incompetent. It is barred by the Limitation Ca use in Section 15(1), of the EPA, Cap.87. The plaint would be rejected to that extent. \par \par Issue number one is, accordingly, answered in the affirmative but only to the extent the suit purports to challenge the exercise by the Hon. Minister of Finance his powers under Section 3(1) of the EPA to return the suit property to the second defendant.

\par \par The finding under issue number one also effectively disposes of the third issue which is whether the plaintiff is competent to challenge the second defendant\rquote s certifi cate of repossession through this suit. Since the plaintiff is barred by the limitation clause under Section 15(1) to do so, he is clearly not competent. Issue number three is therefore, answered in the negative. \par \par WHETHER THE CANCELLATION OF THE PLAINTIFF\rquote S OFFER TO PURCHASE THE SUIT PROPERTY WAS LAWFUL \par The Plaintiff got the offer to purchase the suit property on 15}{\super\insrsid11863356\charrsid6898182 th}{\insrsid11863356\charrsid6898182 May 1995. on the same day, a sale agreement was executed between him and the Government of Uganda through the Ministry of Finance. \par \par It is the case for the plaintiff that he had purchased the suit property by the time the first defendant cancelled his offer to purchase it.

Minister of Finance issued exhibit D4, the certificate of repossession to the second defendant. \par \par From that set of facts and circumstances court finds that the payment of the entire purchase price was a condition in the agreement. It went to the core of the contract. Property would not pass before the entire payment was made. T he completion of the contract and passing of property was to take place after full payment. There was even no issuance by the Minister of the certificate of purchase as stipulated in the Agreement. \par \par Court would, therefore, not agree with the contention th at by the time of cancellation property had vested in the plaintiff. An offer does not vest property neither does part-performance, however substantially where the intention of the parties points to the contrary in the instant cases, the written agreemen t is clear and the intention of the parties not doubtful. \par \par Regarding the arguments relating to the alleged waiver, court accepts that there was a waiver of the 60 days period and the requirement to make one payment for the balance after the 10% deposit. However, court rejects the argument made on behalf of the plaintiff that by the waiver the first and second defendants waived their right to repudiate the contract of sale for breach }{\insrsid12413670\charrsid6898182 beyond 26}{ \super\insrsid12413670\charrsid6898182 th}{\insrsid12413670\charrsid6898182 July, 1995. Instead, court accepts the argument by learned c ounsel Mr. Makeera that the right to repudiate was itself not waived by reason of the extension of the 60 days, deadline or the alteration of the requirement to pay the balance in a single payment. The English decision by }{ \i\ul\insrsid12413670\charrsid6898182 Lord Denning in Charles Richards Ltd. Vs. Oppenheim [1950] ALL E.
