WHAT TO DO WHEN YOUR PARTNER DENIED BEING A PARENT TO YOUR CHILD?

''Mbu' for those born between October 10th and December 11th are all Valentine's Day babies. Anyway, Zamula had this problem. At the last Valentie's day, Mukasa sweet talked her and promised her that they could start living together. Infact, they stayed together for 2 months after that 'sweet' valentines day, and when she realised that her period was no where to be seen she informed Mukasa.

However his reaction was unexpected. He immediately kicked her out the house and broke up with her. He told Zamula that "their family does not give birth"

Her child is now 4 months old and she wants to know what she can do about Mukasa who continues to deny that this is his child?

WHAT DOES THE LAW SAY?

The law allows Zamula (and anyone else who has a child someone is denying) to ask court to settle this disagreement by declaring whether that person is the real parent or not. This in law is called a declaration of parentage. If Zamula believes that a person like Mukasa may be the father of the child, she can go to a magistrate court with evidence that proves that Mukasa is really the father of her 4 months old baby. The person who asks for this declaration can be the parent, the child (who is below 18 years), or a guardian of the child.

This evidence can be proof of the date of conception (when she got pregnant), pictures (that show resemblance between the alleged parent and the child), etc. If there was a DNA test conducted, then the results can also be brought before court. If there are no DNA results, then the court has powers to order that the test is taken so that the court can rely on this evidence.

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...
