On May 23, 2018, I shared my thoughts on legal education in Uganda. In what was originally just an FB post, I advised scrapping of the LDC pre-entry exam in favour of a national pre-law school exam. Over 7 years later, this advice may soon become law.

"An unjust law is not law at all." Laws must be just. Ugandans are not opposed to the express traffic penalties - they are opposed to manifestly extortionate EPS fines which are devoid of an appeal process. #ReduceEPSFinesNow.

In 2023, a Magistrate's Court ordered our client to pay 14m to an ex-boyfriend. We appealed immediately and in 2025, the High Court (Commercial Division) has reaffirmed the law on "boyfriend-money", "okukuula omusajja si musango ate tasasulwa".

Touching❤️.
Yesterday I earned my first five million shillings as legal fees, the first thing that came to my mind was to send some "soda" to my mother. Indeed the future is bright!
