Alaka & Co Advocates are the Defence Lawyers for Embattled Jinja RDC Eric Sakwa, As He Arrogantly Spits Fire; Only President Museveni Can Remove Me From Office.

Jinja District RDC Eric Sakwa.

Embattled Jinja Resident District Commissioner (RDC) Eric Sakwa is challenging the move by the Office of the President to interdict him.

This past week, Haji Yunus Kakande, a secretary at the Office of the President, informed Sakwa that a decision had been made to remove him from office during the time he’ll be battling in court.

Sakwa, who stands accused of manslaughter and robbery, was arrested on April 24 and released on bail on April 29.

The decision to interdict him was made on May 4.

Now, to challenge the interdiction, MS Nyote & Co. Advocates and Alaka & Co. Advocates have filed an application on behalf of Sakwa in the High Court in Jinja.

The respondents in the matter are the attorney general of Uganda and Kakande, the aformentioned secretary.

According to the filing, Sakwa was not given any hearing before receiving the interdiction letter.

“All rules of natural justice were flouted,” reads the application.

Sakwa argues that his conditions to serve are not predetermined by having a criminal case in court.

He also says the letter does not indicate that his interdiction was directed by the appointing authority, in this case, president Yoweri Museveni.

“… the second respondent [Yunus Kakande] did not follow the procedure to interdict me since it was not on the direction of the president,” the filing says.

The RDC says he’s being threatened by Kakande and agents of the attorney general.

For that reason, Sakwa wants the interdiction “quashed” and the respondents prohibited from ejecting him from office until protocol is observed.

Eric Sakwa was appointed RDC of Jinja district on Oct. 22, 2018.

According to the appointment letter, he’s entitled to a consolidated salary of Shs27,518,400 per annum, or about Shs2.2 million per month.

He is also entitled to an allowance of Shs165000 per night and Shs13000 per day.

Sakwa is also entitled to annual gratuity calculated at the rate of 40% of his basic salary.

He can also take leave at a rate of 3 days per month or 36 days per annum.

An autistic man was surfing the internet on his dad’s sofa. Then the FBI turned up to Arrest Him.

By Stephanie Clifford. I f you read Brandon Fleury a story when he was three, he’d recite it back to you word for word. His father Patrick, then a professional tennis coach, was both bemused and impressed by his physically awkward son. He would tell people about Brandon’s capacity for mimicry – eventually he found himself explaining it to a jury. Brandon had a tough childhood. One night when he was five and lying in bed with his mother, she had a pulmonary embolism and died. Fleury became a full-time single dad to Brandon and his younger brother. Brandon had always needed extra attention, but after his wife died Fleury began to pick up on more unusual elements of his son’s behaviour . A girl from the neighbourhood would pull him around in a wagon “like he was a puppy”; Brandon seemed uneasy with it yet unable to articulate his discomfort. At their home in Santa Ana, California, he would repeat phrases and questions over and over again, or open and shut doors repeatedly. So
