Replying to @mkainerugaba
Thank you so much chairman for this tweet. It does not only demonstrate your humanity but also your sense of right. It is also a shining example of your political maturity and social humility. And most importantly, it is evidence of your courage as person. This is what makes you a great leader admired by so many people. It’s rare for someone in your position to recognize their mistake and apologize for it as publicly as you have done. Today I remove my hut and bow to you for this expression of courage and strength. I salute your sensitivity towards those you have wronged. I love and admire you to the moon and back.

This should be considered a mark of shame not pride….
The Supreme Court in Kampala has today resolved a land dispute involving 27.3 acres that has been in the justice system since 1990, after the parties agreed to share the disputed land through appellate mediation.
The mediation was conducted before Lady Justice Prof. Lillian Tibatemwa-Ekirikubinza (Justice of the Supreme Court), at the Supreme Court in Kampala.
The dispute dates back to 1990, when the parties began using traditional methods to resolve the matter. These efforts continued until 2015, when the matter was taken to the High Court in Kabale. It later proceeded on appeal to the Court of Appeal before reaching the Supreme Court.
At the Supreme Court, the dispute came before a mediator (Lady Justice Prof. Tibatemwa-Ekirikubinza) under Mediation Cause No. 4 of 2026, arising from Civil Appeal No. 23 of 2025.
During the mediation, the respondent agreed to retain 14 of the 27.3 acres in dispute, with the balance to be shared by the appellants bringing the long-running land dispute to an end.
The conclusion of this appeal also brings to an end three matters arising from the same dispute that were pending before the lower courts.
At the close of the mediation, Prof. Francis Bwengye (one of the lawyers in the matter), thanked Lady Justice Prof. Tibatemwa-Ekirikubinza, who mediated the matter, for listening to the parties and guiding them towards a mutually agreeable resolution without imposing a judgment.
Prof. Bwengye also commended her for the patience and guidance throughout the mediation process.
Notably in attendance was HW Alex Mushabe (Private Legal Secretary to the Chief Justice) who earlier on presided over the pre-mediation meeting

AI is becoming increasingly capable of supporting biological engineering.
In a recent study, researchers used AI to generate complete genomes for bacteriophages – viruses that infect bacteria – with some designs producing working viruses in the lab.
The science is striking but are safeguards developing quickly enough? The story: bit.ly/4gCpJMm via @ConversationUK
