Kivumbi, the former Butambala County MP, and his co-accused are facing terrorism-related charges stemming from arrests made between January 2nd and 14th, 2026, in Butambala district. Their arrest followed a security operation at Kivumbi’s home during which more than seven people were reportedly shot dead.

Speaking about the condition of the Mityana–Mubende Road, the minister said the government could have spent less money on the project if engineers had raised concerns about the road’s deteriorating state earlier.

Oyat criticised the outcomes of the January 2026 general elections and said the upcoming local council elections present another opportunity for citizens to elect leaders who will protect their rights and promote development.

"This milestone reflects our shared commitment to wounded, injured, and sick servicemen and women who have sacrificed greatly in service to our nation," Kiwanuka said.

The court has directed the respondents, including the Attorney General and the Electoral Commission, to file their replies and scheduling notes by July 21st, with the petitioners expected to respond by August 4th, 2026.

During the session, the prosecution asked court for more time to conclude inquiries before the case could proceed to the next stage. The court granted the request and set July 27th as the date for further mention.

‎"Very many people have been arraigned in court on corruption charges but all these are pawns and just being used to be sacrificed. The main people to be charged and sent behind bars are Anita Annet Among, the former speaker and the Hon. Adolf Mwesige, the clerk to parliament who also happens to be the accounting officer at parliament and no single coin can be released without his knowledge. These two are the main culprits and we will all be happy if charged in court and then remanded for the massive corruption we have seen at parliament,” Olanya said.
