Ready to serve the Nation as Semester starts at Makerere University. Being a human rights academic and constitutional lawyer has become so challenging. In many circles you are now treated with animosity.

Joshua Leon Otim, a 16-year-old student of Excell High School in Mukono District, has succumbed to injuries he sustained on December 6, 2025 in Gulu City, Northern Uganda when a gang, police and UPDF soldiers unleashed violence against National Unity Platform (@NUP_Ug) supporters and their presidential candidate, Robert Kyagulanyi who was in the city to campaign ahead of the 2026 General Election. Otim died this afternoon at St Mary's Hospital Lacor in Gulu City. Ms Margret Acan said her son who was hit on the head with a blunt object slipped into a coma after the vicious attack. His body has been taken to Gulu Military Hospital for postmodern. No suspect has been arrested in connection with the saturday violent incident. Police earlier said they were investigating the incident which left several supporters of NUP, including Mr Kyagulanyi's confidant, Daniel Oyirwoth, also known as Sir Dan Magic, injured #MonitorUpdates #UgandaDecides2026 📷 James Owich

Colleagues, in *Today’s Daily Monitor, 23rd November 2025*, as part of my series on the evolution of the Judiciary in Uganda, I demonstrate how the "Post Amin Judiciary forgot nothing and learnt nothing"* I use the Andrew Kayiira Lutakome v Rugumayo (Constitutional Petition No.1 of 1979) as a reference. Get yourself a copy. #LinkingtheBarBenchand Country #BodaBoda2JSC @bkabumba @ug_lawsociety @Makerere

Angelo, there are many reports and investigations, some were done during the time, some by international bodies like Amnesty International, International Commission of Jurists. There are also eye witness accounts, including from relatives. The Drum magazine also did a good job, documenting what was happening. In Uganda, the Commission of Inquiry into human rights violations report of 1997 is very good. Court decisions too.

@bazzira @bkabumba I dont believe any of this crap. Do you have concrete evidence of any abductions in Amin’s regime or you just depend on rumors spread by NRM

Colleagues, in Today’s Monitor, as part of my series on the evolution of the Judiciary, I demonstrate how Amin left the Judiciary in tatters. Military tribunals assumed immense judicial power and never followed due process. Lawyers were targeted, some killed. @bkabumba

@bazzira @bkabumba Not helpful and important today. How about if you also bring his achievements. It's enough of a negative history. We can at least see the good in him through the worst your government has done today

Dear Gen Z Lawyers, Relationships matter a lot. But too many of you think the only people worth connecting with are the “big names” or senior colleagues. The reality is, your peers matter just as much. Build your #network sideways, not just upwards. Your career won’t be defined by skills, knowledge, or hard work alone. It’s also about the people you know, the collaborations you form, and the support you give and receive along the way. So, take time to connect, share, and grow together. A strong network at every level will carry you further than you think.

The Project aims at using participatory approaches to assess the quality of justice services in select districts. As indicated in this Concept Note, a digital tool has been designed to enable different actors to evaluate the justice services in their districts.

As a candidate, the campaigns to garner votes to be elected to represent the ULS on the JSC gave me the unique opportunity to traverse the country riding a Boda-Boda (motorcycle) to visit courts, law firms. service providers, and other justice institutions.
