Former IGP Gen Kale Kayihura Approved by Uganda Law Council, to Start Practicing Law.



Kayihura, who is a qualified lawyer is on the list of 20 others who seek to become legal advocates in different courts of law in the country.


Accordingly, the former IGP was approved during the law council meeting on 10th November 2021 at 10:00 am.


The Law Council is mandated  to act as the overall regulatory authority for the entire legal professional and legal aid service providers in Uganda but also inspects law chambers and issues a certificate of approval of the chamber that conforms to the required standards .


Analysts say the latest is one of the indicators of the woes that the former police chief and Museveni’s blue-eyed boy  has faced since been dropped as IGP in 2018 and the subsequent charges against him in the army court that he is still battling.


Many say, these have forced him to retreat to his legal profession but it remains to be seen if he could be allowed to practice , provided the ongoing case in the army court.


Earlier this week, the Commander of Land Forces, who is also the First Son, Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba pleaded with his father President Museveni to forgive Kayihura.


Muhoozi said that Kayihura was a special cadre who inspired him to serve Uganda.


“Gen K Kayihura was one of those special cadres in the early 1990s who inspired us to serve our nation. Others were late Generals Mayombo and Kazini. If he made mistakes, let us use revolutionary methods of work to rectify them. I request the CIC to forgive and rehabilitate him,” Muhoozi said in a tweet.


While President Museveni campaign for another term in Kisoro, Kayihura’s home area earlier this year, local leaders asked him to forgive their son.


They told Museveni that Kayihura had done a lot in mobilising support for the NRM government and consequently ought to be pardoned.


Speaking in response, Museveni said he would ask the army court to look into the request.


“Since the leaders of Kisoro sitting here have asked me to pardon that great NRM mobiliser, I will personally put the request to the military prosecution,” Museveni said.


It remains to be seen what the fate of the former police chief is.

UGANDA ELECTORAL COMMISSION TO ELIMINATE NATIONAL IDENTIFICATION CARDS (IDs) FOR 2021 GENERAL ELECTIONS.

The elimination of using National IDs (Ndagamuntu) for the 2021 elections should not have come as a surprise. One would be very NAIVE to think that Bobi Wine has not prepared for this in his Business Plan under the RISK section. It is public knowledge that our EC is not independent.  It is also public knowledge that Military Dictator Yoweri Museveni will never lose an election. What stunned us this morning is when we noticed that on social media, people were mocking Bobi with his "get your Ndagamuntu".  We are on record for saying to all Our readers that the National ID is like Apartheid in South Africa. Students of History would know how those IDs were being used to arrest people, deny them jobs, deny them basic services. Consequently, Bobi was not wrong and will never be wrong on the Ndagamuntu. Except the ones attacking him and mocking him forget that in Uganda, now, no National ID (Ndagamuntu), no service.  If you have not been denied registering your child i...

Last week of March, a friend told me to pray for Uganda.  I told him that he was an Idiot and we have prayed for too long and we are still hungry and sick and Jesus is not coming soon to liberate us. He then ignored the STUPID and sent me a picture we all now know.  It got me totally messed up.  This guy was telling me to pray then sends a picture of men bowing down in blood.  He might have meant guns but I blocked him because his utterances of praying for Uganda were misplaced. I unblocked him 3 weeks later and asked him about praying and assassinations.  His reply "eithrr prayers or guns or both". I hate violence with a passion.  So he is now blocked in like FOREVER. Do you feel safe?  Do not feel safe. Uganda regim...

Okello lost his wife 20 years ago and decided to only focus on their Mateo, Yona and Yosefu. 20 years later, Okello had 7 acres of land, a successful poultry business, and sinotrucks for hire. Early this year, Okello got a call telling him that one of his trucks knocked a boda boda. Okello decided to rush to see if he could sort it out before police became involved. Unfortunately, he never made it, as he was entering the main road, another trailer rammed into him and killed him instantly.   After Okello had been laid to rest, his sons sat down and divided the property amongst themselves. However, of late, Yosefu the last born has started complaining that he was cheated, and he wants to be given something else because most of the chicken in the chicken business died of a fever.   Can ...
