Added: 2026-05-16

[00:00:00]What what what problems do people face who always speak tend to be the lawyers of the chosen people?

[00:00:09]Uh there are many. One, lawyers of the chosen people uh less liked in the society.

[00:00:18]Natukugambire kukuvata.

[00:00:20]Society ekitwala ng'omuntu omubi.

[00:00:24]Naye amazima g'alina singa abantu e Uganda bagamba >> English.

[00:00:29]Yeah, in Uganda they say we are 80% Christians.

[00:00:35]Meaning also almost the balance of 20% are Muslims.

[00:00:42]And all these people follow some god.

[00:00:47]A god of Wanyama. If it is in Christian, how come in in John chapter 8 the one who was arrested in adultery when he was being executed, Jesus was asked a question. And in the in that question his answer was, "If you have never committed any offense, be the first one to throw a stone on this person."

[00:01:15]So, why do you condemn somebody before trial?

[00:01:19]Okay, two in that scenario of Jesus, where was the man or Wanyama ng'ab'atukugeddeko ku wedda? If yes, Christian emirira n'aba n'aba Muslim.

[00:01:31]I think we agala omuntu ku sivirisa olw'emirira n'abalungi. Kati abaliba n'emirira n'anyi anajja abajjamu TV.

[00:01:39]Kati owo omuntu omubi ow'amaziga omusango. It just came ready. And then Moses yakozesa Musa yali mudda. God God used Moses who was a murderer to lead his own people. And Moses is believed in the Quran and also in the Bible.

[00:01:58]So, if that's the case, the most important thing is about leave somebody to be easy work in the right way according to the law.

[00:02:09]So, people who give us their cases don't have enough money to facilitate what a defense lawyer should do.

[00:02:23]Do if it is still government that is less pay, what should somebody do?

[00:02:29]Like for example, if it's a one time I was in a matter of murder.

[00:02:35]I remember that was in a PT.

[00:02:38]The defense brought their lawyer on a postmortem report.

[00:02:43]I also brought a doctor.

[00:02:47]The the prosecutor brought their doctor about this postmortem report. He explained it.

[00:02:54]I was examining. I realized there were mistakes.

[00:02:58]I also brought another doctor on defense to explain the same postmortem report.

[00:03:05]He came up with a different version as to the cause of death.

[00:03:10]Now, the recommendation of the judge who wanted justice said I should also now bring my own doctor.

[00:03:17]And he preferred a name that I will not disclose to come and clarify on this postmortem report such that I know what is the cause of death of this person.

[00:03:32]Could it be the works of this person in in court or some other things caused his her death.

[00:03:40]So, a poor person cannot afford to hire a doctor to come and interpret the same postmortem report.

[00:03:50]So, you will find that court will rely on an explanation of a doctor maybe has less experience to interpret this.

[00:04:02]Then, if at all this person doesn't have we end up being imprisoned for something he has not done. But in case he did it supposing the person who carried out the postmortem report is in ex- he has very very less experience. And the lawyer the other side understands what is the postmortem, what is the what is the cause of death.

[00:04:28]Can easily destroy that case whereas it is true that you are the person whereas it's true that you are the person committed. And now court will be in suspense apart from acquitting that person.

[00:04:41]>> You talked about the investigations that are not police they lack money and they lack resources.

[00:04:50]investigation.

[00:04:51]>> Mhm. What's our final what's your prayer?

[00:04:54]And my request is government to increase the funding and the training police officers such that when they do they do this work salary such that the truth is revealed.

[00:05:11]Two, during recruitment eh they should recruit people of integrity.

[00:05:20]However, I will not blame the recruiting department in totality.

[00:05:28]The problem might originate from our families broken down families.

[00:05:38]In these broken down families they produce to the public the the the quality of the product is very low. It's raw.

[00:05:48]They have bad manners. So, such a person, if he holds any office, that office will suffer in service delivery. So, the issue is also not only on the government, but also at home. You as a mother and a father, are you at home to instill discipline in your children?

[00:06:10]These mistakes they say police officers made, lawyers made, doctors made, engineers made, they have a bearing to upbringing at home.

[00:06:21]Not only on the way or at school.

[00:06:25]So, why?

[00:06:27]We see parents, anyway.

[00:06:29]I will not go there. It's okay.

[00:06:34]Uh uh again government budget in bullying this quarter, fuel you are entitled to 2 million.

[00:06:42]2 million things of things of things of in that month things of things of things of We have 2 million quarter release.

[00:07:02]2 hour police is in the transport.

[00:07:06]Police station everyone.

[00:07:14]I will go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to Now, you have bought the transport assistant to reach the scene of crime.

[00:07:32]quality investigations hurriedly investigations By the time they arrest you almost have no defense.

[00:08:03]Everywhere there are cameras. So by the time Two, it can be a question of integrity during investigation.

[00:09:22]in prison.
