Chief Justice not Ill, Stay Calm, Judiciary Says

The Judiciary has denounced social media allegations that the Chief Justice, Alphonse Owiny-Dollo is critically ill and has asked the public to stay calm.

"While it is true that the Hon. Chief Justice is out of the country receiving medical attention, it is not correct that he is critically ill or ill at all," Jameson Karemani the Judiciary Public Relations Officer said.

"We therefore wish to dispel the unfounded and exaggerated reports about his health and further reassure the public that the Chief Justice will soon return and continue serving the people of Uganda," he added.
