After the sale sources can reveal Uganda Revenue Authority (URA) did not get their share in income tax as per law established as it was not submitted.

This has resulted into a clash between Mrs Goodra and URA income tax department. No amount of money was mentioned but sources say Bwebajja was sold in billions while other sources say Goodra had before sold Avemer shopping Mall in billions to another city tycoon Godfrey LuLe popularly known as Ntake and both the buyer and seller remained tight lipped and kept it as a secret to date.
