Editor's Note | We have decided to publish this December 5 letter by Uganda Law Society president Isaac Ssemakadde to his predecessor Pheona Nabasa Wall as is to maintain every breath in it, every juice in it, and every ounce of emotion, good of bad.
In a statement issued by Rose Lilly Akello, the minister of State for Ethics and Integrity, the government expressed outrage over what it called “abhorrent language” that undermines public decency and the dignity of women.
AG Kiryowa Kiwanuka says Isaac Ssemakadde's 'Executive Order' expelling him and the Solicitor General from the ULS Council was as embarrassing to read as it ought to have been to write.
During his swearing-in ceremony, Ssemakadde reaffirmed his dedication to restoring the integrity of the ULS and upholding the rule of law, as part of his broader advocacy for the rights of Ugandans.
