What she did is more dangerous. Artists must get managers and get into formal contracts with their clients, regardless of the events at which they’re invited to perform. If that promoter had signed an agreement with payment terms, Spice would instead let her lawyer handle the issue. What she did is right - if we go by pedestrian standards, but wrong if she cares about her brand. This issue should encourage her to start issuing formal payment terms and contracts to her clients.

Last night after performance in Bukomasimbi Artist Spice Diana had an incident following failure of the promoter to clear her payment. She consficated equipment as collateral till shes cleared. On snapchat she wrote “Normal people are enjoying their beds, you drive 4 hrs on pressure, otusewa otusewa, mukama nayamba notuka, with the poor roads of Uganda past mindnight, nio ate no payment. I will die with someone as always. I don't joke with my money ,the Ghetto in me comes out. Mpozzi nga saberako nankulabye” #NBSAfter5

@kiizaeron He is a bit off and late for the current evolution. We learnt from the PS Finance that defense, education and health budgets are protected going forward. He also revealed that hence forth parliament will not be an allocating entity moving forward.

Months ago, the Budget Framework Paper had projected a resource envelope of UGX 69.399 trillion. The figure was later revised to UGX 78.2 trillion in February before settling at the current record high. As CSOs, we find that the government is spending roughly UGX 331 of every UGX 1,000 collected in revenue to pay interest on loans.

The previous post is not about the performance of the state prosecutor who was under cross-examination, but rather the brilliant manner of his cross-examination by Counsel Fredrick Mpanga (Kyomuhendo is a good lawyer with a bad case). There, in that instance, was pure, high-level, excellent court advocacy from which many could learn valuable lessons. But let me raise a more granular point from that process: disclosure. The prosecutor misquoted the Soon Yeon Kong & Kwanga Mao v Attorney General, Constitutional Reference No 7 of 2007. He may have forgotten that the firm of AF Mpanga were the lawyers in that case and thus could not be misled about the court's findings. That is why, when handed the court's decision, he could not point to a paragraph on the State's right, indeed to any mention of witness protection in the law, resorting instead to extrapolations and misinterpretations of the judgment. The prosecution has treated disclosure as a discretionary power, thereby abusing the process. The effect of the Soon Yeon case is the imposition of a duty on all parties to make both exculpatory and inculpatory disclosures. In simple terms, disclose both incriminatory and exculpatory (evidence of the innocence of the accused person, which may have been discovered in investigations). That is what a fair trial would mean and look like. I hope the court rejects the request for an in-camera trial and the attempt to conceal the witness from public testimony. If you have a good-faith, strong case, bring it on in the public glare. youtu.be/leP08TK-wDk?si…

Watching Mr Frederick Mpanga doing his thing in court I am reminded of what our mother used to tell us: “Whenever you pray, don’t forget to pray for wisdom”. Listening to a fine brain, you just find yourself smiling alone! Unfortunately, fine brains increasingly have less space in the country, as mediocrity born of corruption has become a norm.

@nickopiyo I watched it 4 times The expat never understood anything, he instead cried for protection from the judge.... What amused is council on the state side shouting, don't answer that question 🤣 Mpanga is real deal, I remember him during kyakuwa case. Kudos

A law student or any other person in Uganda interested in learning the art of cross-examination should watch counsel Fredrick Mpanga’s cross-examination of a state attorney - prepared, calm, pestering, and never asking a question whose answer he did not know. Each question set sctrap ontovwhouc the poor attorney walked in. Whether the trial judge in the conduct of the case will see this is a matter in which the jury is still out there, and there are many doubters youtu.be/1i58K_cto9Y?si…

Some academic fields are just ridiculously incompetent. Qualitative research is completely riddled with subjective and non-reproducible mumbo-jumbo. Now that LLM:s make rigorous text analysis possible, these "researchers" refuse to use it. 🤯🤐
