Court Dismisses Opposition Application to  Stop Legislation on Age Limit Bill

VIEWS

High Court in Kampala has dismissed an application filed by opposition party leaders, Abed Bwanika, Ken Lukyamuzi, and Asuman Basalirwa seeking an interim order to stop parliament from legislating on the constitutional amendment bill that seeks to remove the upper 75 years and lower 35 years age caps for Presidential candidates.

The opposition party leaders had filed for the injunction, pending disposal of the main case before the same court in which they call for a referendum to decide upon the amendment.
