Kampala. President Museveni has appointed Alfonse Owiny-Dollo to be the new Deputy Chief Justice.
The current deputy chief justice, Steven Kavuma, is due to retire at the end of September when he clocks 70 – the retirement age.
In an August 18 letter to the Speaker of Parliament, Rebecca Kadaga, Mr Museveni also appointed Richard Butera and Paul Mugamba as Supreme Court judges, from Court of Appeal.
“This, therefore, is to forward to you their names and curriculum vitae for parliamentary approval,” Mr Museveni said.
The appointments will take effect if Parliament approves the nominees.
