Kazinda may die in court’

Geoffrey Kazinda could easily collapse and die in court if he is forced to stand trial in his state of health, the Prisons Doctor Alex Kakoraki told the Anti-corruption Court Tuesday.

He said that the interdicted Office of the Prime Minister’s Principal Accountant is too ill to stand trial and has been referred to Mulago Hospital for further examination and treatment.

“Based on our assessment, I don’t think he can stand trial at this point in time. My Lord, I don’t want him to collapse before you…,” Dr. Kakoraki told Justice David Wangutusi at the Anti-Corruption Court.

He added that he cannot say how long this state will take but that the drugs that Kazinda is taking will begin to show results in three weeks.

Kazinda is at the heart of the over sh40bn fraud in the Prime Minister’s Office over which donors withheld aid from Uganda and the Government arrested him and several of his colleagues from his office, Ministry of Finance and the Central Bank.

Several other officials of the prime Minister’s Office have been quizzed over the said corruption scandal.

Wangutusi summoned the doctor on Monday to Court yesterday to explain the letter he had sent from Prison saying Kazinda could not appear for the commencement of his trial due to ill health.

Dr. Kakoraki said that he found that Kazinda had abnormal sleeping habits coupled with incoherent speech. “Attempts to wake him up have not yielded any fruit. If he tries to stand he staggers as if he would fall,” Dr. Kakoraki said.

MBINU ZA KUMFIKISHA MWANAMKE MWENYE MAKALIO MAKUBWA KILELENI KWA HARAKA

Kwa kawaida wanawake wanafikia kilele (mwisho wa utamu wa ngono) kati ya dakika ishirini na saa moja, yaani kwa kifupi inawachukua muda mrefu sana hali inayopelekea mpenzi mvivu kuchoka na ufanyaji wake utakuwa wa “ovyo” hali itakayo kufanya wewe kuishiwa na hamu ya kuendelea. Pamoja na kuchelewa huko ambako kunatokana na utofauti wetu kati ya mwanaume na mwanamke lakini nakumbuka hapo nyuma nilikutana na wanawake 2 waliokuwa ndani ya ndoa na wamezaa lakini hawajawahi kabisa kujua utamu wa tendo hilo alimaharufu kama “kufanya mapenzi”. Natambua kuwa ni ngumu au niseme si wanawake wote ambao wamejaaliwa kimaumbile kwamba wanafanikiwa kufika kileleni zaidi ya mara mbili kila wanapofanya mapenzi/ngono (kumbuka ni kati ya dakika 15 na saa moja hivyo Jibaba hapa awe na uwezo wa kujizuia kwa zaidi ya dk 45) na ikiwa jamaa ni “mzamiaji” basi unaweza ukaondoka na goli 3 ktk mzunguuko mmoja. Lakini kwa nini basi baadhi yao tu ndio wafike kileleni na wengine was...

Mushikiwabo to UN: Enhance civilian protection

By Eugene Kwibuka Rwanda’s Minister of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation has urged the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) to invest more energy in the prevention of conflicts for better protection of civilians living in conflict-torn areas. Rwanda’s Foreign minister, Louise Mushikiwabo Louise Mushikiwabo made the call during an open debate on the protection of civilians in armed conflict which the UNSC held in New York on Tuesday. “Rwanda’s core message today is that enhancing the protection of civilians in armed conflict requires action before a conflict starts. The proliferation of non-state armed groups makes civilian protection both more urgent, and harder to achieve,” she said. For better protection of civilians in armed-conflict areas, the minister emphasised the need to increase investments in professionalising the military and police forces through adequate training. “Only when the leadership of armed forces shares the international...
