Across many juvenile justice systems, including Uganda’s, children attend legal proceedings without meaningfully taking part in them. Adults speak for them, speak about them and make decisions on their behalf, often without ensuring that they understand what is happening or feel able to express their own views. Attendance is mistaken for participation.
Therefore, where a person is already registered as proprietor, the loss of the old transfer form does not undo the registration. The official register remains the strongest evidence of ownership, unless fraud, illegality or another recognised legal defect is proved. A registered titleholder should not be threatened, extorted or made to feel insecure merely because an old paper is missing from a file.
We would be justified in criticising the approaches by Barugahara and Nameere if they visited a district impromptu and found everything in order. Yet, wherever they have gone, they find rot, shoddy work and potbellied contractors. Why would such people deserve a written notice of the minister’s arrival?
For long, Uganda’s fight against corruption has suffered from a familiar problem: plenty of talk and discussion, alarm and anger over individual cases and little action. Ugandans are very loud about corruption, in an enabling environment for free public discourse on anything, but how come that corruption remains unchecked year in, year out?
With Moses Ali’s passing, Uganda has lost more than a decorated soldier and experienced politician. It has lost a witness to many defining moments in the country’s history.
Ugandans deserve a traffic enforcement system that prioritises public safety over personal gain. A Government that has consistently declared its commitment to fighting corruption should ensure that allegations of corruption within traffic enforcement are investigated, that officers found guilty are held accountable and honest officers are supported to do their work professionally.
Regional integration is, therefore, not merely an economic strategy; it is a survival imperative. In a world increasingly organised around powerful economic blocs, a divided Africa is effectively choosing slow economic suicide.
But FIFA must return to the game. To retain the mystique, the allure, and the sweetness of the World Cup, FIFA must return to the roots of the game, where talent matters.
Our marriage failure is not a sudden, unexplained illness. We know the causes, but still hope they will stop at the neighbour’s. Meanwhile, we spend all our energy trying to fix marriages that were fundamentally broken before they even began. It is like trying to turn a single-story house into a skyscraper without adjusting the foundation.
Among and Namujju joined Parliament at the same time and, therefore, became the best of friends. Namujju used to visit Among, and they chatted inside Among’s lavish bedroom. During their chats, they disclosed to each other their wealth, investment plans, marriage issues and future political plans.
At the beginning of 2003, Matembe revealed her New Year’s resolution, stating: “I want to get closer to God so that He can control my life.” During that year, she, along with fellow ministers, Bidandi Ssali, Eriya Kategaya and Sarah Kiyingi, vehemently opposed the scrapping of presidential term limits from the 1995 Constitution. Her stand put her at conflict with those who wanted term limits scrapped for Museveni to vie again for presidency in 2006.
Men aren’t emotionally fortified to handle their wives’ adultery; it carries strong connotations of shame, ridicule and emasculation. In some societies, a man whose wife cheats is deemed sexually weak, powerless and unworthy of respect. Men cannot comprehend a wife who cheats, gets pregnant, deceives them on paternity, continues to deliver the baby and bring it into a man’s brood.
Soon after Besigye’s election petition was dismissed, Lukwago served as the attorney of Besigye’s partner, Winnie Byanyima, when she was charged with sedition before the Buganda Road Chief Magistrate, Catherine Bamugemeire, on April 17, 2001.
According to Lubega, Ugandans are employed in sectors such as education, healthcare, engineering, mechanics, transport and entrepreneurship, reducing direct competition with locals in low-skilled jobs that often become flashpoints during anti-immigrant campaigns.
For East Africa, these disruptions have tested the resilience of economies where trade contributes at least 50% of GDP in Sub-Saharan Africa. Yet disruption is also accelerating investment in regional trade, alternative corridors, digital trade systems and intra-African market integration.
Much as Among received and appreciated financial donations from Ekemu, Nandala and Kajeke, she pushed for a largely strategic friendship with Michael Kabaziguruka upon realising that he was closer to Besigye than her aforesaid male friends in FDC.
But if you have been playing the encyclopedia role of a spouse, your partner will put up a fight to reclaim their space before giving up. And when they give up, you may never recover them intact. So, how can you schedule your spouse before you schedule the Speaker?
Gargan then wrote: “The man, who brought peace, Yoweri Museveni, is still largely unknown to most Ugandans. Where he wants to take the country and how he hopes to do it, continue to be subjects of speculation in newspapers, in the offices of longtime civil servants and on the street corners.”
A senior army officer during Amin’s regime ordered that the bodies of the Americans be burnt to ashes.
In reality, the girl who gets pregnant is never the most sexually active in the village. The unwanted pregnancy is certainly not schooled in the mathematics of guilt. Ssalongo is never the most prolific in sex.
