The Uganda Law Society (ULS) Elections Committee has released a list of 14 candidates who will vie for the Association’s representative position on the Judicial Service Commission (JSC).

Earlier this month, the ULS passed a resolution to recall Ruth Ssebatindira and Norah Matovu Winyi from their positions as ULS representatives to the JSC following findings of irregular nominations.
In addition, ULS interim Honorary Secretary Eddie Nangulu announced an extraordinary meeting set for December 17, 2024, at Imperial Resort Beach.
Members will deliberate on the suspension of ULS Council members Philip Munaabi (Secretary General) and Geoffrey Turyamusiima (Central Region Council Member), elect new JSC nominees, and review previously referred books of accounts.
This meeting marks a pivotal moment for the ULS, as members aim to ensure accountability and proper representation within the Judicial Service Commission.
