Legal experts have castigated President Museveni as wrong; in his attempt to influence the pending judgment of the Supreme Court on the nullified legality of the Court Martial in trying civilians. Museveni put up a strong defence for the military courts in a statement last evening, applauding the courts for the stability of the country through the speedy disposal of cases of gun violence, unlike the civilian courts.Now, the lawyers say this is to embolden the officers of the military courts to try political cases like that of Dr Kizza Besigye. Uganda Law Society President, Isaac Ssemakadde stated in a circulated public statement that the defence by the president is in contempt of court and an attack on the rule of law.

Even a bushman can see that Kizza can never get any fair trial in the military court.

But is it possible to change the constitution so that any president who wants to stand in 2027 should have studied law including the Speaker of Parliament and Chairman of the military court martial. Period

It shows clearly that Uganda has a judiciary that is completely bereft of international legal jurisprudence.
***Who are the presidential legal advisors? I know the attorney general is one of the government legal parrots. Why are they being paid salaries if they ill advice the president?
***Could it be that the president thinks he knows it all, which is why he doesn't bother seeking their professional expertise?
***The country is now in a state of judicial dispute.

People should not focus on the current laws being passed cong they won't change anything. People should focus on how people get to be in authority. Appointments should be totally and other competitive ways to identify eligible candidates adopted. No one appointed can not dance in the tune of the appointment authority
