Some people, on the basis of her name “Mutesi,” are wondering why a “Munyarwanda Inhebantu” and not a Musoga. Two things; 1. Anyone, irrespective of religion, tribe, race, etc, can marry whoever he desires. 2. Mutesi is a female name in Busoga, especially of the “Abaise Menha”

Certainly lawyers have every right to participate in discussions concerning ULS. But they do not have even an iota of a right to ring fence discussions to only ULS members. Lawyers don't exist for themselves. Everyone, every Ugandan can and should discuss ULS issues.

Apart from knowing him since our days at uni & appreciating his choice of PIL for a career, I chose Semakadde because i believe everyone deserves a chance. No body should be written off because of his background or condition. No body is more equal than others!

A lot of words will be used, but for the young lawyer or any lawyer driven by rule of law or a robust ULS, only one candidate has a track record of leading from the front and thats Isaac Semakadde.
