So after the court session I asked him, what does it take for one to be a lawyer? Because I felt that there was a need to help other people like me in prison get the justice they deserved,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>His lawyer told him to do a lot of research and read huge volumes of books and he decided to pursue a career in law.<\/p>\n<p>He joined Senior Three at Nyamushekyera prison.<\/p>\n<p>Having been on remand for four years, the High Court presided over by Justice Lawrence Gidudu on October 20, 2008 found Kakubi and his brother guilty of murder and handed them a death sentence.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c\u2026\u2026the deceased was murdered without being given a chance to defend herself against the allegations of witchcraft. Her life was terminated at once forever. I have no basis for imposing a lesser sentence since all opportunities existed for discussing this matter either in a family or village meeting between these neighbours.\u201d Justice Gidudu\u2019s judgment reads in part.<\/p>\n<p>He added: \u201cI am appreciative of the accused\u2019s remorsefulness but I am inclined to impose a sentence that equals the crime that was committed. Accordingly, I sentence each of the accused persons to suffer death in a manner prescribed by law.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kakubi and his co-accused were transferred to Luzira prison in the condemned section as they waited to be executed.<\/p>\n<p>He completed his Ordinary Level exams in 2009 at Luzira where he scored aggregate 40 before joining Senior Five in 2010 in Luzira prison pursuing History, Economics, Entrepreneurship, and Divinity.<\/p>\n<p>In 2011, he sat for his Uganda Advanced Certificate of Education and scored 18 points.<\/p>\n<p>The Drake University of California in Partnership with Makerere University Business School (MUBS) offered Kakubi a scholarship to study a diploma in Entrepreneurship in 2013, which he completed in 2015 with a first class.<\/p>\n<p>However, he was not satisfied with the achievement as his goal was to help fellow prisoners get justice.<\/p>\n<p>Though prisoners do not get a chance to study degree courses, Kakubi and 14 other inmates at Luzira were sponsored by the African Prisons Project to pursue bachelors\u2019 degree in Law at the University of London.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis was my turning point in life as I was able to major in criminal law given the past experience with my defence lawyer who betrayed me during one of the court rulings,\u201d Kakubi said with a smile on his face.<\/p>\n<p>Kakubi and his 14 other inmates studied this course online and they bought books through prison authorities and sometimes lawyers.<\/p>\n<p><b>ALSO READ:<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Museveni pardons Venezuelan drug trafficker, 78 other prisoners<\/p>\n<p>In 2016, Kakubi represented himself and his brother Muramuzi in the Court of Appeal where they had challenged both the sentence and conviction given to them.<\/p>\n<p>The court ended up striking off the death sentence.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAccordingly, we set aside the death sentence imposed on each of the two appellants and instead sentence each of the appellants to 20 years imprisonment to run from October 20, 2008\u201d a panel of three judges of the Court of Appeal led by Justice Remmy Kasule ruled.<\/p>\n<p>They added: \u201cIn view of the totality of circumstances surrounding this case as founded on the evidence that was adduced, the case does not fall among the rarest of the rare or the worst of the worst. Given the manner in which the murder was executed, the age of the appellants and opportunity for reform, this case does not therefore merit a death penalty.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kakubi later wrote a book titled Live Your Heaven On Earth which he counts among his biggest achievements in prison. He sold the book at $7 (about Shs 25,000).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI do not regret being imprisoned because it was a life changing moment for me. For what the Uganda prisons has done in my life I declare them life partners,\u201d Kakubi said.<\/p>\n<p>The two brothers were later transferred to Nyamushekyera Prison in Bushenyi on March 16, 2021 and were later released on March 3.<\/p>\n<p>Kakubi hopes to pursue a bar course at LDC and go on to write more books that speak to a person with a life like his.<\/p>\n<p><b>ALSO READ:<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Kasule sold out for children of prisoners<\/p>\n<p>Kakubi says he is happy to be back home although he has found the property he left behind ruined.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI could fill a truck of matooke from my plantation but now it is all in shambles and I know I will put it back to the level at which it was. Some of the pieces of land I had acquired have been sold off,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He added: \u201cMy community received me with joy which shows acceptance and since I was a leader and got saved, I know, I will easily mingle again.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Reaction<\/p>\n<p>The head of the education department in the Justice Defenders organisation, Ms Milly Kakungulu, said: \u201cWe sponsored him as an organisation because he was very disciplined and passionate about the law as well as helping other prisoners. Even before he got onto the programme, you could tell that he could come up with lines of argument, so it was very easy for them to catch up because you are just giving them the law to back it up.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She added: \u201cOur organisation, Justice Defenders, is empowering people to be their own first advocates because we know that we want justice and it is the lawyers that usually do that, but it\u2019s even more powerful if someone that is going through a hard time, because they can do twice as much as anyone paid to do it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The officer-in-charge of Nyamushekyera prison, Mr Henry Kidega, said Kakubi was an exemplary prisoner who served his sentence and gave other inmates hope.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKakubi was involved in Church activities. He would guide and counsel his colleagues especially those serving longer sentences. He had a remarkable record that really showed he had reformed as a prisoner,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Ms Success Kakubi, the daughter of Kakubi, said she found it hard to live with other students at school while her father was in prison.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI made sure that while at school, I never mentioned my dad\u2019s name for fear of being stigmatised. It was so painful,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Johnson Turyakyira, Kakubi\u2019s eldest son, said he dropped out of school after Senior Six to help his mother fend for the family.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur mother taught us to be content with what we had because she would look for tuition but we would look for our own money to buy other scholastic materials by laying bricks, helping out with uncle\u2019s farm work, so we had to limit our expectations at all costs,\u201d Mr Turyakyira said.<\/p>\n<p><b>ALSO READ:<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Byabashaija asks govt to release more prisoners<\/p>\n<p>He added: \u201cHowever, we were mostly supported by our maternal grandmother who has since passed on because she became our pillar where mother failed. We cannot express how happy we feel for having our beloved dad back.
