Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>Buganda Kingdom Prime Minister (Katikkiro) Charles Peter Mayiga has cautioned lawyers against corruption especially in form of bribery over land issues.<\/p>\n

Speaking to the delegation of lawyers who September 20 paid a courtesy visit to Kingdom headquarters in Mengo, Kampala, the Katikkiro said poor people have lost trust in court because of corrupt lawyers who favor land grabbers.<\/p>\n

\u201cLawyers should embark on protecting people\u2019s land instead of making the judiciary for the wealthy. This has also caused delays in the judicial processes,\u201d he observed.<\/p>\n

The Katikkiro also revealed that Buganda Kingdom through Buganda Royal Law Chambers and Local government have embarked on having lawyers in every sub-county and urged the Law Development Center (LDC)to join the cause .<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have an agreement with Uganda Law Society to open up legal offices country wide and we have so far opened up in three sub-counties of Entebbe, Mawokota, Mpigi and Buddu. We aim to take legal services to all Ugandans,\u201d he emphasized.<\/p>\n

Additionally, Mr Mayiga appealed to first-time lawyers to be patient as building strong earning-careers can even take over 15 years.<\/p>\n

Buganda Kingdom Attorney General, Christopher Bwanika emphasized that the lawyers\u2019 visit had come at a time when the Buganda King (Kabaka) Ronald Muwenda Mutebi II had just warned his subjects on corruption and land grabbing.<\/p>\n

The Deputy Chairperson Buganda Youth Council Derrick Kavuma who led the delegation said: \u201cWe want to fight corruption and bribery in our profession because it has tarnished the name of the judiciary countrywide yet there few who are involved in such deeds which affect the poor.\u201d<\/p>\n
