mabirizi

Male Mabirizi Kiwanuka is a Ugandan lawyer, political activist and a senior member of Uganda Law Society known for challenging the 2017/2018 constitutional amendment (the Constitution (Amendment) (No. 2) Bill) that removed the 75-year age cap for presidential candidates. This amendment enabled President Yoweri Museveni (born 1944) to remain eligible for office. Mabirizi challenged this in the Constitutional Court, the Supreme Court, and subsequently the East African Court of Justice.
