Kampala — The Central Motor Club (CMC) has dedicated next weekend's motor sprint in Lubiri to the Bududa landslide victims in Mbale and Kasubi Tombs razed by fire.

CMC secretary Leone Ssennyange announced at the launch of the Race to Race Sprint in Lubiri yesterday.

"We are going to give part of the proceeds to our brothers and sisters in Bududa, and aid the reconstruction of Kasubi Tombs as part of our social responsibility," Ssennyange stated.

The motor rally fraternity joins several firms and individuals that have assisted the Bududa victims.

The rallying group is also keen to play a part in re-building the Kasubi tombs.

On Tuesday, fire gutted the over 130-year old structure where remains of four Buganda Kings are buried.

The Katikkiro of Buganda John Baptist Walusimbi said on Wednesday that the tombs will be rebuilt.

The tombs are an example of traditional Ganda architecture and a testimony of the living Ganda traditions.

For Uganda, the site represents an important symbol of its history and culture.

The tombs were listed as a UNESCO world heritage site in 2001.

The Race to Race Sprint organisers said 40 drivers are expected to compete with the registration expected to start soon.
