Africa-Press – Uganda. Abraham Luzzi has attracted growing attention in East Africa with a manifesto that proposes tough action on corruption and major changes in governance.
His ideas have sparked debate for their severity and their potential impact on public spending and accountability.
Luzzi’s anti-corruption plan places strong responsibility on both leaders and citizens. He proposes the death penalty by hanging for anyone found guilty of causing serious financial loss to the state or embezzling public funds.
This would also apply to bribery in awarding tenders, contract delays done deliberately, and other forms of public money misuse.
His political reforms focus on cutting costs and reshaping leadership structures. The manifesto suggests reducing Parliament to 80 MPs and limiting Cabinet to 50 ministers appointed from outside Parliament.
It also calls for the abolition of by-elections and a shift to digital campaigns to lower election expenses. Luzzi proposes higher academic and financial qualifications for MPs and the restoration of the presidential two-term limit.
The justice reforms aim to speed up cases and ease pressure on prisons. Luzzi proposes replacing jail terms for minor offences with fines and introducing alternative punishments to reduce overcrowding.
He also suggests allowing monetary compensation in murder cases with family approval, setting up 24-hour courts as a paid service, and ensuring corruption cases are completed within two months.
These proposals have made Luzzi a major topic of discussion across the region, drawing interest, support, and criticism in equal measure.
