PICTURES: CJ Dollo visits Bulange Mengo to apologise to Kabaka

Chief Justice Alfonse Owiny- Dollo has paid a courtesy visit to Buganda Kingdom Headquarters in Bulange Mengo where it is reported he will be officially apologising to the Kabaka Ronald Muwenda Mutebi.

Dollo arrived at Bulange in the company of former UPC President Olara Otunu and was received by the Buganda Premier Charles Peter Mayiga

Earlier this week, Dollo apologised to the Kabaka of Buganda, Ronald Muwenda Mutebi, over his remarks that the king was airlifted for treatment in Germany in a presidential jet.

Owiny-Dollo, according to Daily Monitor, claimed that he was emotional when he made the statements and apologised to Kabaka Mutebi.

Last week, Katikkiro Charles Peter Mayiga issued a statement calling for calm and cool-headedness among leaders, as the country mourned Oulanyah.

Mayiga, in a veiled barb aimed at Owiny-Dollo, confirmed that Kabaka had indeed travelled to Germany for treatment using KLM Airlines.

Robert Kyagulanyi, the leader of the National Unity Platform and other opposition leaders had called on Owiny- Dollo to apologise for his comments.

Speaking at the beginning of the meeting Mayiga expressed satisfaction that "my colleague" Owiny Dollo had willfully decided to come and "make things right".

Mayiga said that it is a great move and of noble character, if someone by his own accord decides to reach out to another party in case there are things that were not correctly said.

The meeting that is still underway will not proceed without journalists as Mayiga insisted that they be ushered out while Dollo makes his speech in the presence of religious leaders and the Buganda Kingdom brass.
