This initiative is part of the Judiciary’s broader transformation agenda aimed at taking judicial services closer to the people, particularly in matters of high public interest or where the interests of justice necessitate proceedings being conducted within the affected community.
The tragic incident that occurred on April 2nd, 2026, at the Ggaba Early Childhood Development Program in Kampala saw the killing of four children aged between one and three years identified as Ryan Odeke, Gideon Eteku, Ignatius Sserwange and Alungat Kaise.
