This may have been the case in the past, but I can confirm that this is no longer the position. At the Makerere Law School of 2025, in particular, I can assure all and sundry that any LLM student who puts in the work is assured of graduating in time.

I had to read this book again by Daniel Kalinaki about Kifefe Kizza-Besigye which also talks about Winnie Byanyima Dr Besigye is visionary! I think as a doctor he knew the form and content of the individual. His predictions came to pass and we are counting 40 years!

#ContemptOfCourt has been defined as disregard of a court or an interruption of its proceedings by disorderly behaviour or insolent language, in its presence or so close to it as to disturb the proceedings or to impair the respect due to such court. Ok?

#ContemptOfCourt #PopQuiz He is the only person ever to be convicted for contempt of court by a full seven judge bench of the Supreme Court in Uganda. He served the longest sentence for contempt. Who is this man? How long did he serve?

He has since served his sentence at Kitalya Mini-Max Prison, and is a free man, unbroken and unbowed. His case in the East African Court of Justice against his conviction, is still pending.

To stop this, the Attorney General filed an application to have MALE MABIRIZI Ug &East Africa RULE OF LAW CHAMPION charged for contempt. Enter Justice Musa Ssekaana! After a two months trial, he delivered a ruling, peppered with legal gems, finding Edson guilty.

#ContemptOfCourt: SA court upheld “scandalizing judiciary” as constitutional but slammed summary trials. Contempt trials need a different judge, unless exceptional! Fairness first! 🇺🇬 ⚖️ Our contempt convicts were all summarily tried! #JusticeForAll saflii.org/za/cases/ZACC/…

I still remember that interaction Cecil Yongo! It reminds me of the cycle of life - the importance of doing what one can, and then letting smarter, more vibrant people take the work forward. Prof Oloka Onyango did this for me (and others), and I can only hope to pay it forward
