Uganda: Rebel MPs Dragged to Court Over Sh8 Trillion Legal Fees

Four law firms have dragged MPs Theodore Ssekikubo (Lwemiyaga), Barnabas Tinkasiimire (Buyaga West), Muhammad Nsereko (Kampala Central) and Wilfred Nuwagaba (Ndorwa West) to the High Court, accusing them of failing to pay sh8 trillion in legal fees.

The said money arises out of representations and submissions made by Victoria Advocates and legal consultants, Kwesigabo-Bamwine and Walubiri advocates, Lukwago and company advocates, and Alaka and company advocates on behalf of the said MPs both in the Constitutional and Supreme Court in 2014-2015.
