#RadicalNewBar - we are dedicated to transforming legal discourse in Uganda. We believe in the power of a just and independent legal profession to remedy historical grievances and to chart an equitable and inclusive future.
UPDATE: Glad to report that the #RadicalNewBar governing council of the @ug_lawsociety has withdrawn the purported appeal filed by the former council against the landmark Kalali Decision. #BangTheTable#BackOnTrack
@RadicalNewBar@IsaacSsemakadde Dear Legal profession, welcome to the improved quality of life. We apologise it sounds nouveau because the cancer had completely taken over for decades that you forgot the feel of democracy hence the need for a Radical surgery.
VIDEO: The #RadicalNewBar President @IsaacSsemakadde demystifying the Radical Surgery in Executive Order RNB No.2 of 2024 in Luganda as he rallied all the Citizens affected by such undemocratic principles to be supportive in providing evidence that will pin the perpetrators of undemocratic and dishonest Justice Law and Order systems.

Our #RadicalNewBar Statement on the Ongoing Trial of Civilians in General Court Martial:
"Olivia Lutaaya and other civilians similarly situated are victims of a compounded state failure for which the permanent solution is #Demilitarization of law enforcement and administration of Justice in present-day Uganda.
It's high time all democracy-loving Ugandans spoke in unison that "Enough is enough!
We must effectively denounce and deter militarization of our judicial system. The nation must wake up to the @KiryowaKk
- @ac_owinydollo cancer that has brought us here."

READ : The 1995 Uganda Constitution is the Supreme Law of the land; it serves as our guiding manual to which we are all bound. The State does not own it; rather, it encompasses the entirety of the State’s legal guidance.
Our fight for AUTONOMY and INDEPENDENCE is explicitly enshrined in this guiding document, particularly within Article 29(1)(e) on the right to freedom of association and the National Objectives and Directive Principles of State Policy.
To the Attorney General, the Solicitor General, and all those undermining our DOCTRINAL efforts to rescue, rehabilitate and reform our National Bar Association, kindly reflect on sub-paragraphs (v) and (vi) of the Democratic Principles (paragraph II) as well as paragraph V(ii) in the National Objectives and Directive Principles of State Policy:
II(v) All political and civic associations aspiring to manage and direct public affairs shall conform to democratic principles in their internal organization and practice.
II(vi) Civic organizations shall retain their autonomy in pursuit of their declared objectives.
V(ii) The State shall guarantee and respect the independence of nongovernmental organisations which protect and promote human rights.
Don’t we deserve our independence? What does an independent legal practice mean when its leadership is plagued by double standards, bias, disregard for legal integrity; and chronic Colonial Hangovers!
Fellow advocates for independent legal practice, it’s time to awaken from this deep slumber.
It’s time for a #RadicalNewBar
