In March 2021, Mukesh Shukla Mambubai petitioned court challenging the election of Joel Ssenyonyi as Nakawa West MP. In the affidavits Mukesh averred the election process was marred with violence and voter bribery. In May Mukesh amended his petition, introducing other grounds which included among others questioning the MP’s academic documents. In his ruling Justice Isaac Muwata declared Ssenyonyi the Legitimate MP for Nakawa West on grounds that Mukesh Shukla Mambubai failed to adduce enough evidence. “The petition is hereby dismissed with costs,” the judge ruled. Ssenyonyi polled  31,653 votes, his closest rival, the National Resistance Movement (NRM) Margaret Zziwa Nantongo came second with 9,450 votes, Democratic Party’s (DP) Kenneth Paul Kakande garnered  posit 2,780 votes, the Forum for Democratic Change candidate Wilberforce Kyambadde came fourth with 1,512 votes and the Independent candidate Acer Godfrey Okot 931 votes. The petitioner, Shukla Mukesh came seventh with 80...

I’m done with paying for a virtual private network, a service that claims to protect your privacy when you’re connected to a public Wi-Fi network at the local coffee shop, the airport or a hotel. For more than a decade, security experts have recommended using a VPN to shield your internet traffic from bad actors who are trying to snoop on you. But just as tech gadgets become outdated over time, so does some tech advice. The reality is that web security has improved so much in the last few years that VPN services, which charge monthly subscription fees that cost as much as Netflix, offer superfluous protection for most people concerned about privacy, some security researchers said. Many of the most popular VPN services are now also less trustworthy than in the past because they have been bought by larger companies with shady track records. That’s a deal-breaker when it comes to using a VPN service, which intercepts our internet traffic. If you can’t trust a product that claims to protec...

People go to Gulu to collect money. The person they go to has no position in government. Mr. Museveni has done all things that may be called taboo. He has even appointed his own wife Minister. Do you want to say these things pain me more than you, Zambaali? If you want something, you either go to Entebbe or Gulu.  The country has become for the selective few. They choose to enrich or impoverish whoever they want.  The people who practice tribalism are not condemned. It is people who talk about it. In order to contest against Museveni, you have to first beg him. You have to ask his police to make a rally to talk about the reason why you should contest. There is another second layer. You have to ask NUP. We opposed the first layer. We will oppose the second. - Ssemujju Nganda #NBSBarometer

A black Toyota Harrier and white Subaru Forester have registration number UBG 129Y.  According to investigators, number plates on both cars appear to be genuine, which prompted them to write to Uganda Revenue Authority (URA)for details. Kampala Metropolitan Police deputy spokesperson Luke Oweyisigyire yesterday said the URA was yet to respond. The police discovered the anomaly after their traffic officers stopped Mr James Echeku, a driver in the Harrier, for nonpayment of Express Penalty Scheme (EPS) tickets. The driver denied having been issued any ticket. “The driver said he was the only person who drove his car and he insisted that he had never been issued with a ticket,” Assistant Superintendent of Police Owoyesogyire said. This prompted the police officers to fetch the details of the person who was driving the car with same licence plate number. The driver of the Harrier also denied knowing the person police claimed was driving the vehicle then. Mr Owoyesigyire said the driver...

If i get a lady and i bring her to be my wife without officially paying dowry,then it happens that she dies in my house,is it legal for her parents to make me pay dowry even when she's dead?? is it in order???.  No, it is against the law for anyone to demand dowry for a dead body. This is because marriage can only be between people who are alive to fulfil the many requirements that make a marriage valid in law. Consent from the couple. A dead person cannot give their consent to the marriage therefore the living ‘husband’ would be waiting foreeeeever for an ‘I Do’ from a corpse. It does not even matter that there had been plans to marry before the person died once a person is dead, that person cannot be joined to a living person because they cannot say yes.  Marriages must be consummated for a marriage to be considered valid, the couple must have ‘s3x’. If this has not happened, the law allows any of them to ask for the marriage to be invalidated (cancelled in law). The law can...

  An army officer believed to be Sgt Terencio Okello Lawelo raises the Uganda Flag on October 9, 1962. PHOTO/COURTESY/ JIMMY KWO/FILE Summary Whereas many Ugandans have been made to believe that Kanuti Akorimo, who hailed from Omatenga Village in Ongino, Kumi, raised the flag. Saturday Monitor’s  inquiry into the mystery now reveals there is strong evidence pointing elsewhere that the person who could have performed that historic task has been quietly living in Kitgum District. Do you remember the name Kanuti Akorimo and the story of Uganda’s Independence flag? Indeed, nearly all Ugandans have been made to believe his unchallenged claims that he hoisted Uganda’s Independence flag at midnight on October 9, 1962.  But investigations by  Saturday Monitor now point elsewhere to suggest that the ‘actual’ person who could have performed that historic task has been quietly living on the outskirts of Kitgum Municipality, Kitgum District. Daily Monitor’s  Canada-based we...
