Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni praised judges for refusing to scrap the death penalty. Addressing the 23rd National Resistance Movement/Army victory celebrations at the Kololo ceremonial grounds, Museveni said those who kill innocent Ugandans deserve nothing less than death. “There were some people asking the Supreme Court to abolish the death penalty. It is not the work of the Supreme Court to do this but Parliament. I am glad the courts also saw it and said it is not their duty.”
