According to ISBAT university, Justice Joyce Kavuma ruled on November 28, 2025 of  the High Court  dismissed an application by Misbahu Din Muslim Community Ltd and Hanifa Nabuuma, who had sought judicial review of directives allegedly issued by the Minister of State for Lands concerning land in Naguru, accusing the minister of illegally directing the cancellation of their titles and sought declarations, certiorari, prohibition, and damages was cancelled on ground that the application was premature and not amenable to judicial review. 

The State Minister for Lands, Sam Mayanja, directed cancellation of the Muslim community's title, citing unlawful issuance by the Kampala District Land Board, stating the land belongs to ISBAT.

The Public Relations Officer of ISBAT University Mr. Patrick Kumba said that he is convinced that those who first filed that case of Naguru land and was canceled in in the lead to tarnish the image of the university while facilitating false information.

The university has enrolled students from over 20 countries in Africa and beyond including Kanya, Ethiopia, South Sudan, Eritrea among others.
