Might be broke but the Constitution is way more broke......n Did this piece for @huripec 's Re-Constituting Uganda launch a while back but the message still hits hard to date. Which line sticks with you? Video cred; @MattKinja

This here is not only an act to uplift others or being generous but also professional courtesy- Wisdom, respect, and mentorship all in one moment.🫡

"The Deputy Governor of the Bank of Uganda, Augustus Nuwagaba, wrote an article advising Ugandans to adopt a saving culture, saying it drives economic transformation. That is true to a point. But for millions of Ugandans, saving is easier said than done because they earn barely enough for rent, school fees and other needs. The advice about saving has been shared for decades. Many Ugandans remain poor, the argument goes, because they spend all the money they earn," writes @kazbuk 👉bit.ly/49s8kSD #MonitorUpdates

📌Explainer... Yes, @democraticfr mounted a petition to Constitutional Court, asking the learned Justices therein to make pronouncements and orders related to the Constitutionality of particularized actions of varied actors, before and during the 2026 general elections. To those interested in reading to appreciate the cause of action, the respondents (Electoral Commission and the Attorney General shall have to explain the Constitutionality of their actions, on the nine (9) grounds hereunder; 1. Failure of the Electoral Commission to re-demarcate Parliamentary Constituencies within 12 months after the 2024 Census, which the party contends that it violated the Principle of Population Quota. 2. ⁠Procurement, and Deployment of Biometric Voter Verification Kits (BVVK) machines during the last election without an enabling Law. 3. ⁠Unexplained expansion of the Voter Register, which the DF avers, compromised the integrity of the election. 4. ⁠Unfairly demanding 100 voter signatures from every intending Presidential candidate from 2/3 of the Districts in Uganda, which is the DF considers legally redundant. 5. ⁠The interfering by the UPDF in the elections and issuing arbitrary orders that compromised the independence of the Electoral Commission. 6. ⁠Failure of the Electoral Commission to tally Presidential elections at National tally Center, and Parliamentary elections results at District/City tally Centers, and failure to harmonize the same results with agents of candidates,and election observers. 7. ⁠Failure by the District Returning Officers to electronically avail to presidential candidates’ agents, copies of returns from tally sheets before transmitting them to the National Tally Center. 8. ⁠Failure to Register and facilitate Diaspora citizens and Prisoners to Vote by the Electoral Commission. 9. ⁠Failure by the Electoral Commission to recognize and treat the DF as a Parliamentary Party! #RealChangeActNow @UgandaEC @JudiciaryUG @DailyMonitor @ntvuganda @nbstv @nilepostnews @newvisionwire @zimulaismael26 @bbstvug @MathiasMpuuga

@martinodongo85 @JoelWegoye @MaserukaSadat Is it my observation or … Like you mixing up stuff From the above, you notice A DJ was entered following a claim for recovery of debt / liquidated demand decree was extracted And execution followed The procedure for setting aside such judgement is provided under Or36r11

@KirongoSalim @JoelWegoye @MaserukaSadat So, none service of summons, mistake of counsel, vitiating factors can cure.

The applicant sought extension of time to file an application for leave to appear and defend, relying on section 98 of the Civil Procedure Act and relevant rules. The respondent raised a preliminary objection that the remedy sought was incompetent because a default judgment had already been entered on 18 October 2024, a decree extracted, costs taxed, and execution commenced; the correct procedure was to apply to set aside the default judgment under Order 36 Rule 11. The applicant contended the extension application had been filed before the default judgment and sought an opportunity to be heard. The court observed that a judgment remains enforceable unless it is set aside and that, in the absence of any application to set aside the default judgment, an application for extension of time to file leave to appear and defend is procedurally incompetent. The application was therefore struck out and costs were awarded to the respondent.

@JoelWegoye @MaserukaSadat This was our AI module 2 civil litigation during term one. Facts though suggested/permitted setting aside both under order 9 rule 27 and Or36r11 but the latter was the right position as guided during peer marking
