Former Inspector General of Police
Kayihura, who is a qualified lawyer is on the list of 20 others who seek to become legal advocates in different courts of law in the country.
Accordingly, the former IGP was approved during the law council meeting on 10th November 2021 at 10:00 am.
The Law Council is mandated to act as the overall regulatory authority for the entire legal professional and legal aid service providers in Uganda but also inspects law chambers and issues a certificate of approval of the chamber that conforms to the required standards.
Analysts say the latest is one of the indicators of the woes that the former police chief and Museveni’s blue-eyed boy has faced since he had been dropped as IGP in 2018 and the subsequent charges against him in the army court that he is still battling.
Earlier this week, the Commander of Land Forces, who is also the First Son, Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba pleaded with his father President Museveni to forgive Kayihura.
Gen.Muhoozi said that Kayihura was a special cadre who inspired him to serve Uganda. End.
