Members to table names of missing persons

AFRICA, BREAKING NEWS, NUP, POLITICS, UGANDA
Kampala-Uganda: Legislators will on Thursday, 4 March 2021 table their ‘lists’ of missing persons alleged to have been abducted by the security agencies. The green light was given by Speaker Rebecca Kadaga during the Tuesday, 2 March 2021 sitting. It follows the continued delay by the Minister of Internal Affairs, Gen. Jeje Odongo, to lay the lists from the Police and the army before Parliament. According to Kadaga, there have been numerous complaints about abductions of Ugandans with the President Yoweri Museveni directing the agencies to make public the lists to enable their next of kin to trace them. “In absence of that, I want to ask those Members who have missing people to produce a list and present it here and then we ask the Government to account for those people,” said Ka...

Bobi wine- since we petitioned the Supreme Court, the Chief Justice has met Kaguta Museveni about 3 times. Imagine this is an arbitrator meeting a respondent in a case. In one of the meetings, the Chief Justice presented a budget to Museveni. Bobi wine cites precedent of Amama Mbabazi election petition where the court accepted an amendment. "It shocked us and the entire world that the Supreme Court rejected our application to file an amendment to the petition" Bobi wine - We are convinced that the Supreme Court has a predetermined mind to reject our petition on grounds that we didn't have enough evidence. But this is the same court wc has refused to take our evidence. Part of the evidence is a video from Kalundi Serumaga Bobi wine - the evidence also had DR forms from Kiruhura wh...
